Negative Positive
Title: Money better spent elsewhere
Review: As a genuine space buff, I read this hoping that the author would be able to find the legacy of the space program and its impact. She didn't. The book reads as a poorly written collection of magazine articles "from the field," complete with obscure references to other literature that we should have read and paradigms that all enlightened individuals should identify with. It seems as though the author had some notes on the UFO phenomenon and some other interesting pop culture fads and strung these notes into a book.It's not that I didn't like her conclusions, but there weren't any conclusions to like or dislike. Or any arguments or revelations, for that matter. The only redeeming feature of the book is her space-related reference list, and that's the only thing keeping it on my shelf.
Is the review positive or negative?
