The International Space Station: Building for the Future (repost)

The International Space Station: Building for the Future By John E. Catchpole
Publisher: Praxis 2008 | 389 Pages | ISBN: 0387781447 | PDF | 8 MB

This book will cover in great detail the newest construction and uses of the International Space Station. The new volume will continue on from the end of Creating the International Space Station by David Harland and John Catchpole (published in January 2002 by Springer Praxis), providing flight by flight details and relevant political and "behind the scenes" activities as are necessary to explain why certain decisions, including flight re-scheduling and crew-reassignment, are made. Part 1 will open with a chapter recounting the political history of the ISS, including how and why the program came into being.
