"An excellent
review of the problem of low-drag ground vehicle aerodynamics, filled with
references and design examples. It allows the reader to understand the
issues involved and quickly come up with a preliminary design, leaving
time for the oft-neglected detail work and testing."

"The Leading
Edge is an extensive treatise on the aerodynamics of streamlined land vehicles...It
is a valuable contribution towards advancing the technology in this important
field."

MIT Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics
"I wish I had access to this book when I was designing human-powered vehicles.
While I've read a lot of the same references, this book pulls them all
together and I might have done things a little differently."
Douglas Milliken, co-author
of Race Car Vehicle Dynamics (SAE 1995)
