New book by Niel deGrasse Tyson!
Stumbled upon this book, at Booksmith..
Accessory to War: The Unspoken Alliance Between Astrophysics and the Military
Hardcover – September 11, 2018
by Neil deGrasse Tyson (Author), Avis Lang (Author)
---
From a quick glance at the contents on Amazon, I'd say he's not as antiwar as we might like,
but does express anguish at the US attack on Iraq and the misuse of science funding being
at the service of the military instead of exploring the basic nature of reality--
One point he makes is that without military funding there'd be a lot less science being done, and
elaborates.
Basically looks to be worth reading-- and surprising to find out how antimilitary he is--
