My Book is Out!

Yes. Modeling Ships and Space Craft: The Science and Art of Mastering the Oceans and Sky is out! Amazon.com even has a “look inside” feature on my book!

I’ve discovered that a site called Novel Rank allows me to track my ranking on Amazon.com. I’ve also learned that the ASIN number is the ISBN-10. I’m looking into ways to market my book to science profs, teachers, schools, professionals….

I’ll keep you posted!

(Here’s the blurb: Modeling Ships and Space Craft: The Science and Art of Mastering the Oceans and Sky begins with the theories of Aristotle and Archimedes, moving on to examine the work of Froude and Taylor, the early aviators and the Wright Brothers, Goddard and the other rocket men, and the computational fluid dynamic models of our time. It examines the ways each used fluid dynamic principles in the design of their vessels. In the process, this book covers the history of hydrodynamic (aero and fluid) theory and its progression – with some very accessible science examples – including seminal theories. Hydrodynamic principles in action are also explored with examples from nature and the works of man. This is a book for anyone interested in the history of technology – specifically the methods and science behind the use of scale models and hydrodynamic principles in the marine and aeronautical designs of today.)
