How many people would buy a book on space technology and policy?

(By yours truly, that is...)

Sure. Of course, it is a particular interest of mine and I've been reading your thoughts on the subject for years.

Go for it. Now. The time is right; the gospel of St Werner is beginning to be questioned.
A book would give your ideas credibility like nothing else.

Put your work-in-progress on the web for suggestions and comments, and to generate buzz. Good luck.

What do you think I've been doing with my Fox columns? ;-)

Depends on the price, and how broke I am at the time! ;)
Seriously, I would be interested, and I can think of some others I might recommend it to.

I'd buy one. I could probably badger others into buying some, too. I can be very irritating that way.

I don't read anything printed on paper anymore, it hurts my eyes.

I would buy a copy.

Okay, Hefty, you can save a tree and buy a PDF version.

Absolutely. Count me in.

Sounds like a great idea.

I would---and charge it to my office if it included stuff on the Chinese space program!

Will it be a page turner??? ;-)

I would certainly buy a book about space policy from such an excellent writer...

Do I still get to root for Mars???

You can root for Mars all you want. Just don't look for support from me. At least, any more than you've seen from the blog or Fox columns to date. :-)

Didn't really expect it. ;-) One of your links lead me to this article... http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=28036

Would like to know your thoughts?

Color me curious - particularly for the explanations of what the current tech options actually are, since there's a serious lack of good info about anything NASA's chosen not to do. And it's hard to come up with good policy in ignorance of what is being done and could be done soon.

Yeah go for it. The more advocacy of space exploration and colonization, the better.

Sounds good to me. Your blog is a bookmark for me and I read your sci.space.policy postings too, and I generally agree with you ;)

Sounds like a good idea...

So, when's it being published?

Shortly after I write it. :-)

As I said, I'm just in the market research stage...

I'd love to see such a book. I'd also be interested to see what your opinion is of some of the space advocacy groups, such as the Artemis Society, Planetary Society, etc.
Of course, I've only been reading your blog for a few weeks, so you might have already mentioned it at some time.

I'll pen a fantastically enthusiastic Amazon review of it (or three) if you give me a discount. I'll even let you edit the review, a bit. Depending on the discount.
