Excellent book, but the author see's with only one vision
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Although I agree the book is a must read, the author fails to allow for any other avenues to SSP. Thus, since his idea will not be carried out without great vision, he makes a case that his is the only way, which it is not. I mean to say only to think that his idea is 20 years old and newer technologies make in orbit construction much less necessary.

This book presents an intelligent argument in favor of the implemenation of of solar power satellites as a future primary source of power. This topic, till now only discussed by scientists and science fiction buffs, is shown to be extremely relevant and important. A must read for people interested in viable solutions for what to do when we run out of oil.
