Krátky popis
In this fascinating foray into the millennia-long relationship
between science and military power, ",the world's best science
communicator", (Times Literary Supplement), astrophysicist Neil
deGrasse Tyson and writer Avis Lang examine how the methods and
tools of astrophysics have been enlisted in the service of war.
",The overlap is strong, and it's a two- way street",, say the
authors, because the astrophysicists and military planners care
about many of the same things: multi- spectral detection, ranging,
tracking, imaging, high ground, nuclear fusion and access to space.
Tyson and Lang call it a ",curiously complicit", alliance.Spanning
early celestial navigation to satellite-enabled warfare, Accessory
to War is a richly researched and provocative examination of the
intersection of science, technology, industry and power that will
introduce Tyson's millions of fans to yet another dimension of how
the universe has shaped our lives and our world.
