This is a book for those who perhaps are not interested in the rockets-and-hardware part of Mars One, but who are nonetheless curious about the mission in its more human dimensions. It is a collection edited and, in part, written by the members of the Mars One Selection Committee. The essays offer a professional examination into the skills and temperament that the Committee looks for in those volunteering to go on a one-way trip to create a settlement on Mars. The question is approached from various angles: psychological, sociological, medical, educational, etc.
I enjoyed most of the contributions and appreciated the variety of ways from which the human side of this endeavor were examined. There were essays in which I found myself wishing for more scientific and technical details. But I think the authors generally struck a good balance in providing professional insights written for a popular audience. I doubt anyone will be searching the Internet to explain many obscure technical terms.
The book includes an appendix laying out the Mars One mission roadmap and the timeline current as of the book's printing.
