Default Suspension crash course?

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, I had a blast tuning engines. What I didn't care about (unless it was broken) was the suspension.

That means I'm a suspension idiot for the moment, but over the winter I'd like to learn much more so that when spring arrives I have an evil plan for improvement, if it makes sense on my car at all.

My goal is to make the car a bit more stable in hard turns without voiding the warranty.

Which brings me to the sages here.

Would you point me to a good resource to learn about the lingo and design of suspensions, please? Online is fine, books are great!

Thank you!

A staple in any car guys' library 'How To Make Your Car Handle".

That is the first thing that came to mind. There are probably some other online sources, I'll check around when I have more time, but this is a good place to start.
Based on the age of your post, I assume/hope you've found some info before now.
