Recenzii

“China’s Space Programme: From the Era of Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping by S Chandrashekhar provides a detailed account of the country’s rise to become a space power worth reckoning. … Each chapter carries a wealth of information in the form of tables and diagrams. … The richness of information on the Chinese Space programme makes the book a historical study, a tutorial, a study in management, and a reference guide.” (Arup Dasgupta, Geospatial Artha, Vol. 1 (5), January-February, 2023)
