Land of Thousand Islands Indonesia
Indonesia is a vast island nation in South East Asia stretching over 5000 km from East to West. Rich with the cultural heritage of Borobudur and Prambanan temples, the country offers vibrant destinations like Bali and the remote wilderness of Borneo and Komodo island. My journey through the heartland of Indonesia took me to these fascinating places. The magnificent architecture of the temples awed me. I couldn’t help feeling an adrenaline rush when I faced the near-extinct Komodo dragons. I enjoyed the starry nights over the dense Borneo forest where the night birds steadily chirped ‘ti-ti-ti’ into the blanket of darkness. The sound of crickets from the distant bush and swamps transformed the nights into fantasy worlds. I sat on a boat over the Sekonyer river in the middle of the night and enjoyed the ‘sound of silence’ around me. I closed my eyes and the images of Indonesia that I grew up with in my bedtime stories were brought to life in the jungles of Borneo and in the rolling hills of Komodo and Rinca islands. The book takes the reader through this journey.

The Multibody Systems Approach to Vehicle Dynamics
Multibody Systems Approach to Vehicle Dynamics aims to bridge a gap between the subject of classical vehicle dynamics and the general-purpose computer-based discipline known as multibody systems analysis (MBS). The book begins by describing the emergence of MBS and providing an overview of its role in vehicle design and development. This is followed by separate chapters on the modeling, analysis, and post-processing capabilities of a typical simulation software; the modeling and analysis of the suspension system; tire force and moment generating characteristics and subsequent modeling of these in an MBS simulation; and the modeling and assembly of the rest of the vehicle, including the anti-roll bars and steering systems. The final two chapters deal with the simulation output and interpretation of results, and a review of the use of active systems to modify the dynamics in modern passenger cars.
This book intended for a wide audience including not only undergraduate, postgraduate and research students working in this area, but also practicing engineers in industry who require a reference text dealing with the major relevant areas within the discipline.
- Full of practical examples and applications
- Uses industry standard ADAMS software based applications
- Guides readers from modelling suspension movement through to full vehicle models able to perform handling manoeuvres

Reviews for "Terrifying Textiles: The Dark Side of the Fashion Industry"
1. Marianne - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Cursed and enchanting fabric". The storyline felt cliché and predictable, and the characters lacked depth. The main love story was rushed and lacked development, and I found it hard to connect with any of the characters. The writing style was also quite basic, with repetitive phrases and lack of creativity. Overall, I found the book lacking in originality and substance.
2. Johnathan - 2.5 stars - "Cursed and enchanting fabric" had an interesting concept, but unfortunately, it fell flat for me. The pacing was uneven, with some chapters dragging on while others felt rushed. I also found the dialogue to be unnatural and forced, making it difficult to immerse myself in the story. Additionally, the world-building was weak, leaving many unanswered questions and inconsistencies. While the idea of cursed fabric was intriguing, the execution was not satisfying.
3. Emily - 1 star - I couldn't even finish "Cursed and enchanting fabric" as it was simply not my cup of tea. The writing style was tedious and overly descriptive, with too much focus on minor details that did not contribute to the plot. The characters lacked depth and their actions felt unrealistic. The romance was also clichéd and lacked chemistry. Overall, I found the book tedious and uninteresting, and I would not recommend it to others.
