Thanks everyone for your advice and input. It seems as though there is no silver bullet for relearning the maths needed for Astrophysics. Someone could make a nice amount of money if they make a book which bridged the gap from average maths to what is needed for Astrophysics.
Cheers for the suggested titles. I'll look into them for sure. I checked that swinburne site which has a good little section on maths for their courses

I'll pull out some of my old texts and try to relearn what is suggested on the swinburne site, then start looking at the more academic texts.
Damn it, I have to re-learn calculus
