Believing that wars fought from space are inevitable, President George W. Bush has called for the weaponisation of outer space - a proposal which could provoke a hugely expensive and potentially catastrophically dangerous new arms race. Contrary to Donald Rumsfeld's claim that the US faces a space Pearl Harbor', the authors of this book show how the US itself is the principal obstruction to an international treaty banning weapons from space.'
