That depends on which method you need. Note that all methods have their
application areas, advantages and disadvantages.

Well, who is interested in numerical methods these days? (:-))

As always, it depends. Though usually Chebyshev's polynomials should be
first to check. I'd recommend any good book on numerical methods.
Especially for approximations, the fundamental work I still enjoy is:

"Mathematical functions and their approximations" by Yudell L. Luke.
