Ask HN: Math books like SICP?

I'd like to start learning undergrad math at a rigorous level.

As a CS grad I already covered certain topics like abstract algebra at a respectable level. But I'm lacking consistent and broad knowledge throughout all areas.

I'm looking for math books covering undergrad topics like SICP, which Peter Norvig described as "[...] a way of synthesizing what you already know, and building a rich framework onto which you can add new learning over a career" [1].
