AN INSTANT #2 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'A fascinating and crucial insight into how, even as humanity moves upwards into the final frontier, we'll be influenced by the geographies of space. Marshall has done it again!' Professor Lewis Dartnell, author of Being Human Space: the biggest geopolitical story of the coming century - new from the multi-million-copy international bestselling author of Prisoners of Geography Spy satellites orbiting the Moon. Space metals worth billions. Humans on Mars within our lifetimes. This isn't science fiction. It's astropolitics. We're entering a new space race - and it could revolutionise life on Earth. Space: the new frontier, a wild and lawless place. It is already central to communication, economics, military strategy and international relations on Earth. Now, it is the latest arena for human exploration, exploitation - and, possibly, conquest. We're heading up and out, and we're taking our power struggles with us. China, the USA and Russia are leading the way. From physical territory and resources to satellites, weaponry and strategic choke points, geopolitics is as important in the skies above us as it is down below. If you've ever wondered if humans are going back to the Moon, who will benefit from exploration or what space wars might look like, the answers are here. With all the insight and wit that have made Tim Marshall the UK's most popular writer on geopolitics, this gripping book shows how we got here and where we're going, covering great-power rivalry; technology; commerce; combat in space; and what it means for all of us down here on Earth. This is essential reading on power, politics and the future of humanity. Praise for THE FUTURE OF GEOGRAPHY: 'Very accessible and allows the author to lead the reader on a voyage of galactic discovery' Robert Verkaik, The Mail on Sunday '[An] engaging exploration of power politics in space' Irish Independent 'A superb survey of planetary politics' Bryan Appleyard, The Sunday Times '[Tim's] prose is brisk in pace and refreshingly crystalline in its clarity, affording a highly readable lesson in historical geopolitics... deeply thought-provoking' BBC Sky at Night 'Marshall is an engaging writer, good at explaining the science as well as the politics, and with an eye for a telling fact' Lawrence Freedman, The New Statesman
