Bob Zubrin's mixture of imagination, technical expertise, zeal and civilizational commitment is unmatched. Nothing brings it out better than his first and best subject matter, the planet Mars
Oliver Morton, author of Mapping Mars
Dr Zubrin has written a magnificent book which will set the gold standard for all future books about Mars. He is a pioneer and a visionary, but his conjectures are always based on solid science. His book takes us one step closer to the day when we can live and thrive on another planet.
Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist and author of The God Equation and Quantum Supremacy
In one volume, Zubrin--the founding president of the International Mars Society and author of The Case For Mars, has achieved what few other books on Mars have been able. He offers an astoundingly comprehensive road map for how to make dreams about colonizing Mars become reality
Bruce Dorminey, host of The Cosmic Controversy Podcast, Forbes.com
Making humanity multiplanetary is one of the grandest adventures of all time. The Red Planet is the key. If you want to understand why, start by reading The New World On Mars
Lori Garver, former NASA Deputy Administrator and author of Escaping Gravity
Robert Zubrin has thought long and hard about traveling to Mars, so we should welcome his latest thoughts. In this highly readable book, he notes how technical advances, especially reduced launch costs, render such projects more feasible. He offers a fascinating and enticing vision of the utopian New World that he believes could and should be created on the Red Planet
Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal and author of On the Future
Robert Zubrin's The New World On Mars confirms the author's stature as one of the high priests of American techno-optimism...The book should be read by all those who reject the discredited ideas of Malthus and his degrowth disciples and embrace Zubrin's vision of a superabundant, pro-human future
Marian Tupy, Founder and editor of HumanProgress.org and author of Superabundance
This book is Robert Zubrin's magnum opus not only on creating a new world on Mars, and what life and society might be like for future Martians, but for what it means for us Earthlings ... Zubrin shows us the way
Michael Shermer, Publisher of Skeptic magazine
Zubrin's vibrant, colorful, and stimulating narrative of how to get to, modify, settle, and prosper on Mars makes me a believer. For the sake of our civilization and our place in the cosmos as important beings, we can (and should and must) do this!
Homer Hickam, author of Rocket Boys, adapted into the film October Sky
