Description
Developing National Power in Space: A Theoretical Model by Brent Ziarnick explores how nations can maximize advantages gained from space operations. Drawing on military and economic theory, the book presents an original model for developing and employing a nation's ability to operate in space. The author examines the implications of this concept for America's space program, particularly its military dimension. A historical analogy is drawn between the rise of American naval power early in the 20th century and the current situation in space. The book proposes a method for the US to lead a new space age. This theoretical model will be of interest to policy makers, planners, leaders, and enthusiasts interested in America's future in space.
