Description
Selling Peace Inside the Soviet Conspiracy that Transformed the U.S. Space Program is a unique account of Russia's marketing efforts to the West during the era of perestroika.
The author, who was part of the Russian space program for 14 years, shares his experiences and those of others involved in the negotiations with NASA, including the signing of Dennis Tito and the development of MirCorp.
This book chronicles a decade-long clash between Russian chief Yuri Semenov and NASA's Dan Goldin, as well as the drama behind the world's only commercial manned expedition to the Mirspace station.
