Well, I'll just quote what some people who read the draft said:
“Someone once said that to know where you are going you need to know where you have come from. Julian Edgar's new book provides car aerodynamicists with a vivid and detailed understanding of how we got here over the past 100 years.”
- Jeff Howell, Visiting Professor Loughborough University and former head of Aerodynamics at Rover, Jaguar Land Rover and Tata Motors European Technical Centre.
"This book takes you on a fascinating and engrossing journey through the history of automotive aerodynamics, highlighting notable milestones in learning and technology, but also bringing real humanity to some of the illustrious names of the field, and adding illuminating context to their work."
- Rob Palin, lead aerodynamicist on the Tesla Model S
"A fascinating and well-researched trip through history that will expand the understanding of anyone interested in vehicle aerodynamics."
- Jon Young, car aerodynamics enthusiast
