Añadir al carritoSoft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. This book is the result of unquestionably high merit and value. Essentially practical in approach, its scope embraces every component part of a motorcycle and it should find a place in every office where motorcycles or engines are designed or built. Moreover and this is the true mea…sure of its quality, it is a book which will be read with equal interest by the youngest apprentice and by the "Gaffer" himself and both will benefit as much from its accumulated wisdom as from the author's stimulating approach to his subject. **The name of the previous owner is written at the top of the frontispiece The book has light tanning while the covers have shelf rubbing at the extremities.**.

Añadir al carritoHardback. Condición: Fine. There are books about motorcycles that celebrate freedom, speed, leather jackets, and the romantic possibility of disappearing down an open road in a cloud of dust and self-invention. And then there is Motorcycle Engineering (1961) by P. E. Irving , which comes at the subject from the far more serious…and, in many ways, more seductive angle of asking: yes, but how does the blasted thing actually work? Published by Temple Press and offered here as a First Edition , this is not a book for the merely decorative admirer of motorcycles. This is a book for people who look at an engine and feel a stirring of respect normally reserved for cathedrals, bridges, and obscure but elegant mathematical proofs. It belongs to that noble class of technical volumes written in an age when engineering was still allowed to sound like engineering: exacting, practical, quietly authoritative, and entirely unconcerned with whether the reader might prefer a colourful infographic. P. E. Irving, of course, was no lightweight scribbler parachuted into the subject for a quick publishing opportunity. He was a genuine engineer, one of those formidable practical minds who understood that motorcycles are not merely lifestyle accessories with chrome. They are intricate, purposeful machines, balanced precariously between combustion, metallurgy, geometry, vibration, and the optimistic assumption that all these forces can be persuaded to cooperate at speed. In lesser hands, this might sound dry. In Irving?s hands, it becomes the sort of thing that can make mechanically inclined readers go a bit misty-eyed. Because motorcycle engineering is, when you think about it, an almost absurdly elegant business. You are taking controlled explosions, harnessing them in a compact metal frame, and asking the result to remain stable while carrying a human being over uneven ground at improbable velocity. The fact that this works at all is one of civilisation?s more persuasive arguments in its own favour. A book like this opens the casing on that miracle and says: here are the principles, the systems, the stresses, the compromises, and the reasons your beloved machine either sings like a masterpiece or rattles like a cutlery drawer on a hill. The charm of a 1961 engineering book lies partly in its confidence. This was an era that still believed in understanding things properly. Not just pressing a button, not just replacing a sealed unit, but really understanding. Combustion, chassis design, suspension, materials, performance, mechanical efficiency: all of it laid out with the assumption that the reader is either capable of learning or ought to be. There is something wonderfully stern and civilised about that. The book does not beg to entertain. It simply assumes that engineering is already interesting, and if the reader has any sense, they will agree. And in fairness, it is interesting. Hugely so. Even for readers who do not intend to rebuild a machine in a draughty shed while muttering about tolerances, a book like Motorcycle Engineering has enormous fascination. It reveals the hidden logic behind the machine, the practical intelligence embedded in every component, and the endless balancing act between power, weight, durability, cost, and control. It also reminds one that the sleek glamour of motorcycling has always depended on an army of clever people doing rather a lot of difficult sums and test runs behind the scenes. This Fine First Edition copy from Crappy Old Books has an added layer of appeal because first editions of serious technical works possess a certain austere glamour all their own. This is not collectible in the flashy, celebrity-memoir sense. It is collectible in the much more satisfying sense of being an original document from a time when engineering knowledge was printed solidly and expected to endure. It has the air of a book that could sit on a workshop shelf, survive decades of consultation, and still look faintly superior to modern paperbacks trying too hard.
