Product Description
This work takes a look at the state of the US space programme as a whole, not just at the civil or military side as most books have done in the past. Part of the author's treatise is that the two communities must stop ignoring each other if the space programme is to become more than just a science project, a jobs programme or a political football. The authors make bold assertions as to why space has been stuck in neutral for so long and how it got into its current state by looking at who has a vested interest in the status quo. After a careful analysis, this work provides policy recommendations and a vision for the future.

Review
?In this ambitious book, Johnson-Freese and Handberg offer a fresh look at the structure of the nation's space activities, attempting to lay out a road map for major changes in the way the United States conceives and executes these activities....The authors, both of whom have been involved in policy analysis of space activities for some years, succeed very well in raising issues that need to be addressed.?-Space Times
