## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This is the one you need for self study
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2021*

This is what I needed to review my rusty skills for a new job role. Suitable for those with some calculus, linear algebra, etc. already under their belt. Well written and reasonably clear (I mean, no textbook on this subject is going to be light reading), as with all textbooks there are lots of missing steps you have to figure out on your own though the authors do seem to have made a decent attempt here to minimize that chore. Biggest plus is there is a solutions manual floating around you can get so this is a rare book suitable for self study. Just make sure you have the pre-reqs in place because you'll need them. Does not cover the more advanced topics you'll need if you are an aerospace engineer, particularly controls or proximity operations but this is all the stuff you need before tackling that more advanced work. Has a decent intro chapter on C-H equations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The Orbital standard.
  

*by G***H on Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2020*

Orbital Mechanics is a phenomenal textbook reference which is the standard for all things associated with space engineering. The book is however at a mathematical level above the average high school  student. I would loved to have seen each orbital math problem worked out with detailed and background explanations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good Textbook, But Lots of Errors
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2019*

I would give this textbook 5 stars were it not for the large amount of errors. I have found countless errors in the examples and chapter problems. This can be as little as one step in an example, to the final answer being wrong! The author should definitely have the book reviewed. Besides this, the textbook is definitely a great introduction to orbital mechanics.
