Reader Reviews
The cover of this book shows a ground radar, satellite, swept-wing bomber, a missile, and circuit board. What these elements have to do with the actual content of this book is not explained. The contents consist of a series of essays written by authors that are torturous to read. While this is an academic work, and though the various authors are duly cautious about drawing conclusions, they basically tell the reader that they can't draw many conclusions from their studies. Many questions are asked but few are answered. A few tentative conclusions would have been better, instead one is left feeling that this is a work in progress. There are references to hardware but a lot of space is devoted to psychology, economics and denazification. I think Science, Technology and Reparations by Gimbal covers the methodology surrounding physical reparations better, although it is a dry read. For those looking for a really well written overview of the hunt for German scientists and technology, I recommend The Paperclip Conspiracy by Bower. Two stars is the best I can give for a small book, 151 pages, including Index, plus i to xviii of introductory material, and it was expensive when initially published. Not recommended for the average reader who is interested in this subject.
