Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Basic Books, 1985. Book. Fine. Cloth. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. NY: Basic Books, 1985. 8vo. Attractive dark blue cloth with gilt lettering on spine, black and white illustrations, 555 pp. The Heavens and Earth is a gripping account of the way the space race made the Cold War total, a competition for the loyalty of all peoples fought out in all arenas of social achievement, in which science textbooks and racial harmony were as much tools of foreign policy as were missiles and spies. Ranging from the secret deliberations of the Kremlin commissars to the vagaries of systems analysis and Space Age technology, this is a global book about a global subject. Minor shelf-wear on dust jacket, otherwise as new. Fine, no dustjacket. No writing inside..
