Description
The Soviet Space Programme (1988) presents a comprehensive over-view of the Soviet space programme from its beginnings up to the end of the 1980s. One important theme explored is the degree to which the Soviet space programme was oriented towards military capabilities. The book concludes that the degree of military involvement was indeed high.
