Journalist and foreign relations expert Tim Marshall explores the new space race, illustrating how politics, geography, and international relations on Earth are being carried with us into the new frontier.

Tim Marshall is a British journalist and broadcaster specializing in international relations and foreign affairs.

In The Future of Geography, Marshall explores the new global era of astropolitics, which is being shaped by adversity rather than cooperation.

Marshall explores how nations and corporations are competing to make their mark – and their profit – on the Moon, Mars, and beyond, arguing that we must deal with this before we can fantasize about living in the space age.
