I can recommend

  Goloub & van Loan (1996) Matrix Computations.
  Johns Hopkins University Press.

for anything that deals with linear algebra.

Algorithms from pseudo-code can easily be implemented in Fortran 95.
It has references to LAPACK and BLAS routines, and some material on
MPI-style parallel algorithms.
