The Space Tourist's Handbook: Where to Go, What to See, and How to Prepare for the Ride of Your Life


by: Eric C. Anderson, Joshua Piven
The Space Tourist's Handbook is another educational, spunky offering from the folks over at Quirk Books (publishers of The Worst Case Scenario Handbook). It provides a decent treatment of the history of space travel, including overviews of edge-of-space aircraft and sub-orbital and orbital vehicles.

The meat of the book discusses training for space flight, recommended packing, the logistics of launch and space travel, and, finally, life in space.
