Rising Force : The Magic of Magnetic Levitation PDF
by James D. Livingston
Description
In this first-ever popular introduction to “maglev”— the use of magnetic forces to overcome gravity and friction—Livingston takes lay readers on a journey of discovery, from maglev nanotechnology to Chinese trains that travel at 250 mph without touching the tracks.
He finds magic in “fighting friction by fighting gravity.”
