Einzelstück 44 - Star Wars. Science-fiction fantasy or serious probability?

Star Wars ist astronomically expensive (the sky's the only limit). Star Wars is totally unnecessary and in clear breach of the ABM (anti-ballistic missile) treaty - the greatest achievement so far in arms limitation - yet is likely to provoke a strong reaction from the USSR. Star Wars is (probably) not technically feasible (according to Isaac Asimov and several American Nobel-prize-winning physicists) and is certain not to be completely secure. Most significant of all, Star Wars is yet another example of the Americans riding roughshod over their NATO allies. This major new book assesses all the arguments fully and proceeds to make a powerful - indeed unanswerable - case against Star Wars. (Klappentext)
