Definitely Buy if you're a motorsport enthusiast.
This books tells you more about Adrian Newey and about his career. The problems he faced during his career and many other things. Whichever country you're from, you should definitely buy this book(By the way, I am from India) and yes, this book is value for money. At first sight it might look a bit overpriced. If you love motorsport and watch it or you have interest in cars, then this book is for you. Adrian has tried to make this book simple for readers who don't have much technical knowledge. But even if you have basic knowledge about how a car and aerodynamics work, try reading it out.

Best book for F1 enthusiasts
A very good read. Has interesting bits about every car and problems he encountered and how he came up with solutions. Also has details about his personal life which I personally like and makes it you feel like you know him personally. A good blend of personal life and professional life makes this the easiest book to recommend.

Every F1 fan should read it!
If you like fast cars, if you like F1, if you like aerodynamics or if you just like a story of a small-town boy who was no good at school making it really big... read this book!I have loved F1 since the 1st time I saw Schumacher leave the rest in the dust. I am still crazy about the insane driving that Verstappen does. But after reading this book, after so many years of adoring the adrenaline rush that is also the pinnacle of motorsports, I find myself looking at F1 in a new light. Yes the drivers are gladiators, but the cars... the cars are poetry in motion! It is hard to explain or even understand many of the technical details in this book but I have a newfound love and respect for these magnificent machines on the cutting edge of human ability! 🙇‍♀️

Excellent book!
Highly recommended. The book focuses more on car design aspects rather than on a lengthy tour of the author's life. So it makes for very interesting reading, for both car racing mavens and for those of us who just find car tech fascinating. The author's view on the great Senna's crash alone is worth the price of admission. One may find the repeated focus on aerodynamic minutiae a little tedious, but all great things are achieved by a long and painstaking process of tinkering and discovery, which this book brings out in spades.

Fun and Informative
It's Newey!! Anyone who follows motorsport passionately has to have this book. And Newey doesn't need any introduction. You are getting a book written by an amazing and highly respectable guy in the world of Formula 1. I think that in itself is sufficient to purchase this book.

Interesting biography of Adrian
Book talk about the happenings in Adrian's life with a touch of technical details. Not so serious kind of book and anyone can read.
