Good, but not as in depth as I would like.
This book deals as much with the philosophy of chassis design, as much as design engineering. Not a really a bad thing, as he strikes a good balance between technical and concepts. Some sections could do with more Maths, to support ideas and explanations but I assume this is deliberate, to avoid getting too scientific. All in all a good book that explains hows chassis work.
