I am incapable of being technical at this gentleman's level. But it was a very insightful read, regardless. I definitely recommend it for the guys that dig mechanics, motorcycles, and Kerouac.

I've heard great things about this book, but kind of let it slip in my list of things to read. Gonna check it out from the library today :)

interesting book, read it in college while on a summer trip backpacking around europe many years ago.

He gets really intellectual and starts breaking down the idea of Quality and my brain feels like its going to melt... He makes a compelling argument but its almost at "A Beautiful Mind" level, for a few pages but I got this edition so it had some decent notes from the author, which revealed a little disheartening after note about "his co-pilot" on his trip. (Its the same as Kerouac, same time period, also non-fiction, and same subject: a guy traveling out west. Its just: instead of being romantic and picturesque its very technical.)
