Download and read online ebook Golf Ball Cover Story write by James J. Harrison. This book was released on 2018-09-26. Golf Ball Cover Story available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book is about the science and technology of golf balls. Many golfers don't understand enough about the modern golf ball to choose which ball they should be using. The author has reviewed the US patent literature from Acushnet Company, the maker of Titleist and Pinnacle golf balls, and has summarized the latest developments in golf ball aerodynamics, the various dimple patterns, the composition of the core and the cover, and why these issues are so important for golfers today. No one has ever written a book that summarizes what the original US patent literature teaches us about golf ball science and technology. The latest discoveries, which sometimes may be highly technical in nature, are written in a form and a style that is directed to the average reader. The chapters in Part 1 of the book are arranged according to the golf ball dimple pattern that appears on the surface of the ball. In Part 2 the chapters highlight what the author has learned about all the important golf ball models made by Acushnet Company, e.g., Pro V1, Pro V1x, NXT Tour, NXT Tour S, Pinnacle Soft, etc. This book is also a guide for those of us who collect golf balls as a hobby. Ways to accurately date vintage golf balls are discussed. Photos and useful information about the golf balls in the author's collection are presented and discussed. The average golfer, the professional golfer, and the collector alike will benefit from reading this book.

Download and read online ebook Calling All Minds write by Temple Grandin, Ph.D.. This book was released on 2019-04-30. Calling All Minds available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. From world-renowned autism spokesperson, scientist, and inventor Temple Grandin -- a book of personal stories, inventions, and facts that will blow young inventors' minds and make them soar. Have you ever wondered what makes a kite fly or a boat float? Have you ever thought about why snowflakes are symmetrical, or why golf balls have dimples? Have you ever tried to make a kaleidoscope or build a pair of stilts? In Calling All Minds, Temple Grandin explores the ideas behind all of those questions and more. She delves into the science behind inventions, the steps various people took to create and improve upon ideas as they evolved, and the ways in which young inventors can continue to think about and understand what it means to tinker, to fiddle, and to innovate. And laced throughout it all, Temple gives us glimpses into her own childhood tinkering, building, and inventing. More than a blueprint for how to build things, in Calling All Minds Temple Grandin creates a blueprint for different ways to look at the world. And more than a call to action, she gives a call to imagination, and shows readers that there is truly no single way to approach any given problem--but that an open and inquisitive mind is always key. Praise for Calling All Minds: "An impassioned call to look at the world in unique ways with plenty of practical advice on how to cultivate a curious, inquiring, imaginative mind." —Kirkus Reviews "Both practical and inspirational, this useful book describes an overall approach to viewing the world creatively, as exemplified by the numerous projects and supporting material provided here." —VOYA "Grandin offers a nuanced perspective on the qualities of a successful inventor—notably, a sense of wonder and curiosity, careful observation, and the willingness to learn from mistakes." —Publishers Weekly
