  Highliner: The Nature, Philosophy and Science of Automobile Driving
 is the most complete, informative and comprehensive book available for drivers. It has been said that you cannot drive a book, but Highliner puts you in the driver's seat. The result of more than thirty years of research and driving experiences, Highliner was hand-forged like gold in the fire, slowly tempered over time, patiently hammered with basic, intermediate and advanced driving strategies and tactics in residential, arterial and high-speed zones. The driving plays contain strikingly well-designed diagrams that show the finer points of traffic formations, following distance, right-of-way, timing and spacing, traffic controls, accelerating and braking, turning, merging, changing lanes, passing, parking and reversing, in addition to collisions, traction, vehicle control and much more.     There are also things to do. Puzzles to solve and mazes to explore. Hidden objects to find. Overcome the fear of driving on the freeway. Get inside the road rager's mind and understand why he behaves the way he does. Learn how to defeat hypocrisy. Ace the driving test. Peruse the photo galleries that contain nearly 1,000 pictures, including grading and commentary. Diamonds shine and pillars rise. Rise above and develop exceptional character strength in a world filled with anger, fear, doubt, apathy and jealousy--and some drivers who really don't know what they're doing.     Containing a wealth of relevant knowledge, Highliner merges with major fields of study, including administration, biology, economics, ethics, mathematics, physics, philosophy, psychology, physiology, sociology and chemistry, and carefully explains how they are all tied in with automobile driving. Highliner is the first known driving book that is founded on codified Rules of the Road and Articles of Conduct, which are based on time-proven, field-tested driving tenets suitable for drivers of all ages and walks of life. Drivers now have a book they can really call their own.     Highliner is the tour de force for today's motorists.     Highliner: The logical, intelligent and elegant choice.     Read it. Live by it. Not just for today, but for a lifetime.     Highliner was written specifically for drivers aged fifteen to twenty-five years, or drivers with little or no driving experience, but it is well suited for driving veterans also, in that it discusses the philosophy and psychology when encountering unskilled, intemperate and negligent drivers. Once you see the hundreds of pictures and driving playbooks of standardized and appealing diagrams, you'll be hooked--for life! Get a copy of this rare edition while you can!     * * * *     This is the Limited Signed First Edition of Highliner. The print run is limited to 100 copies. They are distinguished from the regular first edition, which will follow this edition after all limited signed copies are depleted, in that the Limited Signed First edition has the title stamped in green foil, and the author's signature is signed in diminishing rarity as follows: black ink, 64 copies (# n/ 64/ 100); blue ink, 20 copies (# n/ 20/ 100); red ink, 10 copies (# n/ 10/ 100) ; green ink, 5 copies (#n / 5/ 100), and 1 copy of 100 signed by the author in purple ink (#1/1/100), all distributed at random until depletion (there is also a Presidential copy signed in purple ink that was sent to President Barack Obama). This adds collectible value to your book while at the same time offering the most extensive and attractive book available for drivers at a very competitive price.
