Review: Serious book for the serious student - Bought this for my son during his A-levels as he wanted to pursue aerospace engineering at university. It is a brilliant book, but not for beginners. Think college level textbook. That said, my son started digging into equations and systems he previously didn't even know existed. He's calling it a 'forever on my bookshelf' book. I can dig that. If you or a loved one is interested in spacecraft and engineering, I can't recommend this highly enough.
Review: Recommended - It is a good space systems manual

It is a good space systems manual

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great handbook of satellite design
*by C***E on 5 October 2015*

I'm reviewing this book as a system engineer working on the next generation of european launchers. I bought it to learn more about the requirements that the payload put on the launcher trajectory and required performances. The book covers almost all aspects involved in the design of a spacecraft and so is really good for someone who wants to know all the disciplines which are put to work. But, it also means that the book can only brush all those topics without diving in all the technical details. It must be considered as a guidebook, helping you remember all the steps to take into account while working on a design and not a jack of all trade book. Also, I've found some errors but didn't check yet if there is an offical correction update. So, TL;DR, if you are a student on the subject or, like me, someone who wants to know more about this subject, go for it. If you are into the business, stay with multiple, more advanced book each covering a single topic unless you want a "reminder".
