David Langford in the years between Star Wars George Lucas fantasy and Stars Wars SDI Ronald Regans fantasy, reviewing SF weapons and trying to put the physics in them. A worthwhile read if you know your pre 80's SF ( )

Out of date now, to some degree. But this got me fascinated with science, and particularly the science behind military sci fi. For me this was a seminal book. ( )

The science behind gosh-wow future military technology. No stone is left unturned in an effort to find ever more extensive means of global domination (and/or destruction). In-jokes from the writer friends of the author at the time abound. I have a rare unsigned copy! ( )
