Just looking through the table of contents [1] - this is not just for cars. It's basically a textbook on mechanical engineering, applied to something that will be common and very scavengable in a post-apocalyptic world. The first 159 pages is basically a quick-reference for applied physics; the next 50 pages is mathematics; the next 100 pages is material science. They don't get to anything car-specific until page 460.

- hackernewds 4y agoWhy was this published? Bosch does not even make cars
- imtringued 4y agoIndeed, they only produce more car parts than any other company on this planet.
- spockz 4y agoBosch is a very large supplier for a huge amount of stuff in cars. Radars, other sensors, lights, ecu, brakes, hydraulics, gaskets, sealants, the lot.
- gavmor 4y agoThank you for the link; yes, I laughed when I first paged across the book's reiteration of physical constants, the laws of thermo-dynamics etc. but in retrospect, it's helpful to have even elementary references when learning new concepts.
