From the reviews:
"It concentrates on the role of commercial satellite imagery in monitoring nuclear weapons nonproliferation, particularly in the context of the IAEA safeguards system used to verify the NPT. … This is a timely and important work. It offers very thorough coverage of the subject, successfully links technological and policy issues and provides a wealth of relevant data and many useful recommendations." (John Russell, Trust & Verify, Issue 108, May-June, 2003)
