SUMMARY
"While there is disappointingly scant reference to 'Star Wars,' despite the subtitle's promise, other revelations and insights about the Soviet space program--the story of how the manned lunar program was scrapped, for example--crowd this lively, anecdotal volume. But perhaps the most intriguing revelation is the most understated, that honest and honorable scientists like Roald Sagdeev, who were committed to genuine and open international cooperation, could survive in such and unpropitious milieu."Sagdeev, Roald Z. is the author of 'Making of a Soviet Scientist My Adventures in Nuclear Fusion and Space from Stalin to Star Wars' with ISBN 9780471020318 and ISBN 0471020311.
