Reddit reviews Moon Lander: How We Developed the Apollo Lunar Module (Smithsonian History of Aviation and Spaceflight (Paperback))

Moon Lander - Thomas J Kelly

Is very similarly-styled book, where the author goes into great detail about the engineering challenges facing the construction of the Apollo lunar module. Not only the technical problems but also the problems with management and bureaucracy. Any type of engineer should enjoy reading this book.

Moon Lander by Tom Kelly - The development process of the Apollo lunar lander from the point of view of a high ranking engineer. Just the right balance between technical and historical content.

I'm almost done with this book: https://www.amazon.com/Moon-Lander-Developed-Smithsonian-Spaceflight/dp/1588342735

It's really interesting. Very detailed descriptions of the history, technical and managerial problems of building a human-rated spacecraft to land on the moon. Written by Thomas Kelly, Chief Engineer on the LEM project at Grumman

As an engineer, the episode "Spider" (Apollo 9) is AWESOME!!

Much of it is based on this book, which is also awesome.

But, the whole series is great. Every episode has top notch production quality, excellent acting and directing (Apollo 8 has such a trippy launch montage).

Moon Lander by Thomas J. Kelly is about the development of the Apollo Lunar Module.

A good book on the subject

I've been reading Moon Lander: How We Developed the Apollo Lunar Module. Incredibly fascinating book. Covers everything about the Lunar Module from design to manufacturing to the actual flights. What I enjoy most about it is how personal the book feels. Since the author is narrating the book through his own experiences, you not only get a sense of the type of thinking that led to the creation of the numerous systems, but also the kind of people these engineers, technicians, designers, etc. were.

What you're suggesting is more advanced engineering than a lunar lander.

EDIT: This book is really good at explaining the development of the lunar lander and it's really not that complex. (The book is slightly technical so a background will help you understand better). http://www.amazon.com/Moon-Lander-Developed-Smithsonian-Spaceflight/dp/1588342735
