Title: A self-aggrandizing attempt that lacks passion
Product review: Mars has always interested me and so I was looking forward to a book that would promote not only this singular endeavor of hers but also future visions for Mars. In several cases her science was flat-out wrong. She claims the radiation on Mars would make it unlikely for humans to visit there. Other books such as "A Case for Mars" written by Robert Zubrin thoroughly refute such claims. Humans to Mars must be promoted not discouraged. I also found the book to be very self-promoting. The word "I" just appeared too many times. The chapters dealing with her childhood were boring and tedious. What does that have to do with Mars? There were a few interesting parts dealing with what actually happened with the Rover on Mars but these parts were too few and far between for this to be an enjoyable read.
