Formula One racing cars have long been associated with the highest standards of mechanical engineering, efficiency and precision.
But while their aerodynamic designs are measured on the track by their functional outcomes, their style and sweeping curves can also prove aesthetically pleasing to motorsport enthusiasts all over the world.
In the book '"The Art of the F1 Racing Car," automotive photographer James Mann celebrates the splendor of these magnificent machines.
In a chance to see Formula One cars when they are not moving at high speed, the book aims to display the vehicles as works of art.
The collection of images covers nearly 60 years of motoring and, although the top speeds of the cars may have changed over time, it is clear to see that the beauty of their designs remains as captivating as ever.

(CNN) -- Although women the world over have been doing it for centuries, we can't really blame a guy for being a guy. And this is especially true now that we know that the male and female brains have some profound differences.
Our brains are mostly alike. We are the same species, after all. But the differences can sometimes make it seem like we are worlds apart.
The "defend your turf" area -- dorsal premammillary nucleus -- is larger in the male brain and contains special circuits to detect territorial challenges by other males. And his amygdala, the alarm system for threats, fear and danger is also larger in men. These brain differences make men more alert than women to potential turf threats.
Meanwhile, the "I feel what you feel" part of the brain -- mirror-neuron system -- is larger and more active in the female brain. So women can naturally get in sync with others' emotions by reading facial expressions, interpreting tone of voice and other nonverbal emotional cues.
