"This is a timely book dealing with a very important emerging application area for rigid body dynamics – namely space systems engineering – and is written by one of the world’s foremost experts in space systems engineering. ...To summarise, this is a really outstanding book which will complement the bookshelf of satellite and tether researchers in particular, but will be of wider interest too and mission design and analysis engineers will undoubtedly find it of help." --The Aeronautical Journal "This is a timely book dealing with a very important emerging application area for rigid body dynamics – namely space systems engineering – and is written by one of the world’s foremost experts in space systems engineering.
