Book Synopsis

Pre-order the fascinating and unexpected story of the iconic Harrier jump jet, and the British engineer who built it

About the Author

Michael Pryce studied the history of technology, completed a PhD and ended up working on aircraft projects, from the famous Harrier jump jet to electric 'flying taxis.' Mike was an independent science and technology advisor to the UK Government, work that led to 'Team Tempest' - the future of fighter design. In between aviation projects he helped build Amazon when it was a company selling books. Despite his plane mania he ditched a visit to Top Gun to become a parent, so he thinks he has his priorities straight.
