Vast coverage of topics, comparable to Automotive Technology by J. Halderman. Good theory explanation and hands-on step by step, although some procedures feel lacking and hurried.

Beautiful photos and colorful illustration makes this a delectable read.

I've only read about 100 pages so far, but I've already learned so much. This is a great book for anyone who wants to learn how cars work! It's written in plain English and builds from first principles on simple concepts, which makes it pretty easy to understand. For the parts that are confusing, I like asking questions to ChatGPT or Grok to help me learn. Overall it's a great book I would absolutely recommend it!
