"living in Space" condition of book and contents.

June 25, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Well the book needed to be glued back together-the spline was apart, but really not that big of a deal considering the book was less than a dollar. And in good enough condition otherwise.
The contents of the book was the important part.
If you have never read about the space station ( or seen it on educational tv) you should get a copy of this book.
It is a little bit of work...like studying, but you can get through it.
Owning a copy gives you hard copy reference.
I am glad I have this book and may order copies for grandchildren in school. Matter of fact, this is June 014, I have a granddaughter going into the Navy in October. I have already ordered her a copy to read before hand.
A fair condition helps but the contents are the real issue.

Great resource for science fiction writers

June 9, 2013

Format: Hardcover

G. Harry Stine is both a scientist and a well-published science fiction and non-fiction author. Although written in 1997, this book is a great reference for anyone interested in writing science fiction backed by real science. Each chapter is full of great information and is written in laymen's terms. Each chapter contains dozens of potential crisises for your characters to face (In Space, it's easy to die without needing to be shot or blown up). Some of the topics covered in the book are:

1. Atmospheres. Not just gases required to support humans, but the pressures and humidity levels
2. Keeping Cool. How the body reacts to various extremes of temperature and humidity
3. Acceleration. Why your spaceship can't accelerate from 0 to Mach 20 in one second without killing the crew.
4. Weightlessness. The many positive and negative affects weightlessness has on the body.
5. Radiation. Which kinds can kill and which kinds don't
6. Nutrition and Sanitation. What goes in and how it comes out.
7. Working in Space. The difficulties of doing physical labor in low-gravity.
8. Designing for human beings. It's hard to design for a 3D environment
9. Recreation in Space. All work and no play leads to space madness.
10. Health and Medicine. How to stay alive when the nearest hospital is 200,000 miles away.
11. Social aspects of living in Space.
