Summary: The Real Story of Space Psychology
Review: This is a book that reviews all the essentials about the psychology of living in space. This is particularly important as we are now on a "fast track" to get to Mars with humans, I hope in my lifetime. This adventure will be extremely dangerous not only from the physical hardships but also because of the mental risks. The authots have reviewed everything that is known about the field, especially what has been learned from Space Station and other experiments in isolated settings. It is readable, especially the last chapter, where the Mars material comes up as the practical problem to solve. Yet, this book is scientific and has all the references needed for more technical research. All in all I found this a fascinating read.
