A MUST read for anyone interested in the Stirling engine. July 11, 1998
18 out of 19 found this review helpful
Although presented as a history of the Phillips Stirling engine efforts, (which it is) the clarity of the explanations of quite complex thermodynamic processes is quite suitable for the non-engineer. Hargreaves describes the journey of this remarkable device from 17th century Scotland to WWII Netherlands to Detroit, Michigan USA. For anyone seriously interested in understanding the kinematic Stirling engine, this is the book to read.
