This review is from: New Directions in Race Car Aerodynamics: Designing for Speed (Paperback)
An absolutely wonderful book. Joseph Katz clearly knows his stuff, the facts are current, and this book is very well organized and edited making it easy and pleasurable to read. There are plenty of diagrams and examples making all of the concepts easy to understand. This book has all the mathematics you need, while keeping the numbers separated into insets. Whether you're a physicist looking for equations with derivations, or you're only interested in the principles of the subject, this is a must have for anyone with an interest in the technologies of auto racing, exotic cars, or any application of aerodynamics.
I'm a physicist writing race car simulators at work. This book is the favorite amongst all members of my team; there are several copies floating around our office.
