Robert Bosch GmbH published the first incarnation of the Automotive Handbook in 1932. The original preface to this edition introduced the book as follows: "These Technical Tables are an attempt to give users of our products a small, handy collection of the interesting formulas, values, and figures—drawn mainly from automotive technology—that are otherwise scattered across various magazines." Three years later, the "Technical Tables" were renamed the Automotive Handbook.

Seventy-five years later, the Bosch Automotive Handbook is an indispensable reference source of precise information on the subject of automotive technology.

This brand-new 7th edition has been extensively updated and extended throughout.
