There aren't many books in English (yet) on China's space program. Brian Harvey's book ("China's Space Program") is a very well-documented recitation of events and the men (and they were always men) behind them, but it makes for dry reading. Johnson-Freese's book ("The Chinese Space Program: a mystery within a maze") is structured differently - more succinct and with summaries of major institutions - but it's nearly 10 years old and a little out of date.Handberg and Li's book is the clear winner - the single best book now available on China's space program. It's written from a comparative politics perspective, and does not China-bash nor China-cheer. It simply analyses China's space program as it is - which is not all that different than the U.S. or USSR's programs were at similar stages. China's space technologies are dual-use as they were for the two early space leaders, but China's goals for human spaceflight are mainly for economic development, S&T development, and above all, national prestige. China's path in space isn't inscrutable, and it's subject to the same political, economic, and technology development rules that apply to every other country as well.The authors lay out the basic facts within their historical context (ex. the Mao years of factional / fanatical politics; how China's commercial sector suffered in the late 90s and why; etc.) along with very incisive analysis of why programs were approved in the context of China's larger development and political goals. Their analysis is scholarly, neutral, and free of scary propaganda designed to advance certain political agendas in the West (but it doesn't sugarcoat China either).This book is already four years old, and I hope the authors think about doing a revised edition. It is not cheap (I don't know why they don't do a paperback reissue), but if you are interested in China's ambitions in space, this is definitely the book to get. It's worth the money.
Roger Handberg and Zhen Li have created a gem in the writing of Chinese Space Policy: A Study in Domestic and International Politics (20007). This excellent book is worthy of the price. Nonetheless, it would be even better in a paperback, updated 2nd edition accompanied by an audio CD option each priced at under $50 so more people will benefit from the understanding of what these two authors provide in placing the contemporary Chinese space program in proper context. And moreover, this book hits the mark in placing the now equal and capable Chinese human space power in the correct policy analysis. It is worthy of a lower priced second edition and the well-read audio edition.The flowing 173 page text would be made even more the worthy product with ten-to-20 pages of glossy photographs to assist the reader in visualizing the written word. Yet those with some international media awareness will get the mental picture from the excellent description of historic and cotemporary Chinese space and technology policy development.This would be one of the books that I would hope that my US Congressman and two US Senators would read prior to voting on space policy issues. It is a book that I would also hope the President's Science and National Security Advisors would have read in the first month of publisher print.Every modern civil, commercial and military space launch leader should know of this book and elect to read it. Handberg and Li have unique insight based upon their well researched, referenced and footnoted book. Every American space industry leader needs to fully digest the text. In my judgment, Chinese Space Policy: A Study in Domestic and International Politics, is an essential reading guide to all-levels of American decision makers facing complex future policy decisions that must be made correctly. Emphasis is on 'made correctly' and not only for America's sake but for the hope that may be afforded all mankind in the second Space Age.As someone who holds a M.S. in space policy, a M.A. in political science, and a J.D. in law as well as having trekked across China, the Handberg and Li book was instructive. It is my hope that the authors would appear on The Space Show with Dr. David Livingston to promote this book, or better yet, a second edition (with my foregoing suggestions, of course). An appearence on The Space Show would give more potentially interested readers the chance to have this important policy knowledge as we advance into the 21st Century.
This book explicitly explores the evolutionary process of Chinese space policy. It is informative and insightful.
