Originally published in 1980, this classic book has now
been updated and expanded to make it invaluable for
today's engineers.
Car Suspension and Handling, 4th Edition focuses on the suspension and
handling of cars, or automobiles, as opposed to those
characteristics of other types of road vehicles, while always recognizing that
there are differences in suspension requirements for different classes of
vehicles, and in various markets of the world
for a given
vehicle.
Through appendices and diagrams, Car Suspension and Handling, 4th Edition
outlines the purpose and history of vehicle
suspension systems, while defining the basic parameters of suspension geometry.
In addition, the book delves into human sensitivity to

steering calculations and suspension
calculations.
