5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best books ever written about Space Development,
By Tihamer Toth-Fejel (Davison, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Doomsday has been cancelled (Paperback)
Gerry O'Neill first developed the idea that we didn't need to live on planets; that we could build large habitats in Space, and leave the cradle of life. Livermore National Lab scientist Dr. Vajk not only covers O'Neill's ideas, but also explains in psychological and philosophical detail the reasons we--as human beings--should develop a space-faring civilization. In 1975, Vajk wrote a computerized economic analysis entitled "The Impact of Space Colonization on World Dynamics," which included the idea of solar power satellites (World Dynamics refers to the World Model of the Club of Rome report). By 1978 Vajk had expanded his analysis into this book, arguing that O'Neill's concept was a breakout from the limits to growth.
