Space as a Myth: A Critical Look at Soviet Cosmonautics through the Prism of Vyacheslav Gerovich's Book

Normally I don't correspond with authors, don't attend reader conferences, and don't write reviews, but here the author directly addressed me (or rather, "today's Russian citizens") with a question: "Do they remember the history of Soviet space exploration with pride or with shame?"
