Rocketeers by Michael Belfiore

Just finished "Rocketeers - How a Visionary band of Business Leaders, Engineers, and Pilots is Boldly Privatizing Space" by Michael Belfiore. The book is a fun, engaging and a bit scattershot look at the visionaries trying to jump start the private space flight business. "Rocketeers" already needs serious updating as many of the companies and projects featured have died, morphed into something else, are still struggling to hit oft-delayed schedules or, in a case or two, have accomplished major goals. Belfiore has successfully captured many of the personalities involved and does an excellent job explaining the technologies involved as well.
