Freeman Dyson's review of Von Braun: Dreamer of Space, Engineer of
War by Michael J. Neufeld is an obvious whitewash of every area
covered in the review. The characterization of NASA is especially
galling and does invite inspection of Dyson's agenda.
Freeman Dyson: "The sun, the genome and the Internet can work
together to bring wealth to the villages of Mexico just as the older
technology of electricity and automobiles brought wealth to the
villages of England."
TRP: "If our world survives, the next great challenge to watch out
for will come -- you heard it here first -- when the curves of
research and development in artificial intelligence, molecular
biology and robotics all converge. Oboy."
