Book Description
Researched and written in Japan with the full co-operation of the factory, The Book of the Honda S2000 provides the definitive detail of the story of the Honda S2000 - a series of open two-seaters that built on the success of the NSX, helping the company justify its on-track exploits with a proper line of sporting machinery. Successful immediately, the S2000 models defended Honda's honour on the tracks, but it was in the showrooms where the S2000 excelled. After a major face-lift, it was eventually killed off in 2009, but is as popular today as it ever was as a modern classic for enthusiasts.

Book Description
The S2000 was full of the advanced thinking that had typified Honda's early years. With a top speed of 150mph, it was comparable to the Porsche Boxster and the BMW Z3. Handling was racecar-like in its precision - the S2000 was everything that buyers would have expected a new generation Honda sports roadster to be.

At the nexus of high finance and sophisticated computer programming, a terrifying future may be unfolding even now. Dr. Alex Hoffmann’s name is carefully guarded from the general public, but within the secretive inner circles of the ultrarich he is a legend. He has developed a revolutionary form of artificial intelligence that predicts movements in the financial markets with uncanny accuracy. His hedge fund, based in Geneva, makes billions.
