Satellite: Innovation in Orbit (Contemporary Worlds)

A good quality book concerning satellite communications. I have seen better and more authoritative references but they are expensive. As a general reference on this subject it is OK. Having spent my entire career in satellite communications I can vouch for the accuracy of the material contained within. However, there were times when I would liked to have seen greater depth in certain historical areas, particularly the early years of commercial satellite operations. However, I did not buy this book with that expectation in mind. Recommended for the technically-minded.

This a really interesting book about satellites with many wonderful pictures. It is fantastic value for what you get.
