Good ideas, not so good execution
Idea is great, however way too much time on statistics, numbers, theories. A little tech background helps create coherence, but you can hear only so many times the organic parts of a healthy soil, or how genetically a closed grpup of people end up by genetically suiciding. And one last thing, please close the story arc loops, too many loose ends.

Awful propaganda filled nonsense
This book is very clearly written to be pro-China anti-Western anti-space advancement material.
Very disappointing to have a book that is supposed to be about colonizing other worlds to have an extreme left turn 70% through and misuse science to claim it's impossible.
A book only a far right wing conservative could find good.
First and only book I've ever requested to refund. Absolutely refuse to support an author with such horrible political views.
