4.0

A remarkably interesting introduction to what it would really mean to live on Mars. This book doesn't pretend everything is perfect in the eyes of Mars One (the introduction is written by a man who admits that he doesn't believe the timeframe or cost estimate are realistic) but it does a great job of showing the hope and sense of exploration and curiosity that those involved in Mars One have, and it's exciting. The book covers health issues, technology issues, interpersonal issues, and discusses the proposed schedule of Mars One and includes quotes from the current list of candidates. It's scientific, if optimistic, and I would recommend to fans of The Martian.
