Praise for R.D. Hall's Soyuz: a Universal Spacecraft The Aerospace Professional "Reading this extremely well researched book will show how this admirable concept, once very much on course to reach the moon earlier than the USA, became a victim of it's own diversity. The authors lead us through this tangled web of Russian design and decision process, which does evoke some sympathy for the frustrated engineers concerned and for a facet of the Russian programme, which could have promise so much. This is a superb acquisition for any library or student of the field.", Praise for R.D.

Synopsis
In Soyuz: A Universal Spacecraft, authors Rex Hall and Dave Shayler reviewthe development and operations of the Soyuz family of spacecraft. Thisincludes the lesser-known military and unmanned versions of this reliablespacecraft.While most works on Soviet/Russian space operations focus on space stationactivities, the story of the Soyuz spacecraft has been largely neglected.An integral element of Salyut and Mir space station operations, the smallferry has been the mainstay of cosmonaut transportation since 1967. Inaddition, since 1978 the unmanned freighter version called Progress hasprovided a means in which to regularly re-supply a space station and soprolong its orbital lifetime.Using authentic Soviet and Russian sources this book is the first knownwork in the west dedicated to revealing the full story of the Soyuzseries, including a complete listing of vehicle production numbers., Rex Hall and Dave Shayler provide a unique history of the Soyuz spacecraft programme from conception, through development to its use, detailed in the only English language book available on this topic. Planned for publication in 2003, it will celebrate 40 years since the original concept of the Soyuz craft.
