It's the "Automotive Handbook (3rd Ed.) by Bosch. It's available from Society
of Automotive Engineers (ISBN 1-56091-372X) and also Robert Bentley,
Publishers (ISBN 0-8376-0330-7) as well as Bosch. I got mine from a friend
who worked at Bosch here in the U.S. I think I've seen it offered elsewhere.
Google should turn it up, otherwise let me know and I can get the phone
numbers of the publishers out of the book.

Tim,
What Bosch book are you gleaning for such useful information? Steve Smith
FWIW The Bosch book shows alternator speeds above 10,000 RPM. Output
however flattens out around 5000. Above about 5-6000 RPM the power
losses,
mainly due to the fan, increase quite a bit.
