For me, the book is a downright life-changing manifesto, a bit like hearing about the discovery of the New World must’ve been many years ago.
Many people didn’t just learn about the New World, back then. Fortunes were made in all sorts of ways as the world discovered how to make the most of America. And that’s why I think you need to hear about the awesome potential of space too.
