From the Publisher

An accessible exposition of the significant astronomical and astrophysical principles presented in their simplest form so as to appeal to general readers. In this revised edition (1st ed. was 1982) Capps (religious studies, U. Cal., Santa Barbara) traces the continuing influence of the Vietnam experience on events as diverse as the Iran-Contra scandal, the Pat Robertson presidential campaign, and the change in US-Soviet relations. He also describes the leading role that Vietnam veterans are playing in teaching our country the lessons of the past. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
