Over here in the UK today a brand new book was published which contains 3 papers written by the late Argentine engineer Ing. L.D.Porta. The papers each contain a very great deal of instructive information on Porta's work and approach. Even the most well educated engineer can learn something from it! Most of it is also readily understandable too. Some of the compounding paper may be a too technical for some but the overall message is still easy to pick up.

I have put some details of the book here: http://www.martynbane.co.uk/modernsteam ... 6book.html

In no way do I benefit from sales of this book, am just doing my bit to spread the word.

Sounds fascinating, as does a lot of their catalog.

I have requested a review copy, if I get it RyPN will have a review posted in briefs as soon thereafter as Hume can manage.
