Tells me the basics of what happen in a car. Helps give me an understanding of the day to day running

Could have been good, but falls short on basics.
Very badly written, terrible grammar and clearly not proof read by anyone with even a reasonable grasp of English. Many of the graphics unclear too. If it had been published with slightly more effort it could actually have been a really good to teach kids etc how an ICE works.

Don’t buy illegible and images not type
Trying to get a refund so I can purchase paper copy. The pages are images and are compressed horizontally when viewing

Lots of pictures, direct basic explanation
A nice simple book for someone (myself) without prior knowledge, who is curious about car engine. It's got lots of pictures and straight forward factual information without much technical (again for someone who is not a mechanic/engineer) jargons.

Nice little book
Bought this as a Chirstmas gift for someone, so I'm not yet sure if they like it. However, I flipped through it before wrapping it, and it is a fun, short, book which explains the very basics of engine operations. It is probably aimed at children in the 8+ year old range, but it might also work for curious girlfriends who are always asking questions, but don't actually want to know the deep technical details. If any of you happen to also be in that situation.

I wish I had read this book before studying mechanical engineering.
I took 3 thermodynamic courses while studying engineering. We solved problems regarding the differing cycles (diesel, gas, etc). At the time, I was just blindly calculating numbers that had no significance. That’s how we were taught. As I was reading this book, I started connecting dots and began to pair the numerical calculations with the detailed imagery from this book. All of a sudden, everything made sense. I wish more professors would integrate real world imagery with the abstract concepts they teach. Learning would become more efficient and it would open up so many new creative ideas. The author of this book clearly lives by that moto. This book is a must read! 10/10
