Review
"This book is an impressive start at redirecting the thinking of both idealistic astronomers intent on expanding knowledge of the universe and the world's arsenal of nuclear scientists who designed and built weapons that themselves could wreak worldwide devastation. Experts from all sides have made a collaborative, multinational effort to save the world from a chunk of rock or a ball of ice. This work has historical as well as pragmatic significance." —Sky and Telescope"As with all the books in this Arizona Space Science Series the standard of production, illustration, and referencing is first class." —The Observatory
