Spacesuit: Fashioning Apollo<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

\nIn Spacesuit, Nicholas de Monchaux tells the story of the twenty-one-layer spacesuit in twenty-one chapters addressing twenty-one topics relevant to the suit, the body, and the technology of the twentieth century. He touches, among other things, on eighteenth-century androids, Christian Dior\u2019s New Look, Atlas missiles, cybernetics and cyborgs, latex, JFK\u2019s carefully cultivated image, the CBS lunar broadcast soundstage, NASA\u2019s Mission Control, and the applications of Apollo-style engineering to city planning. The twenty-one-layer spacesuit, de Monchaux argues, offers an object lesson. It tells us about redundancy and interdependence and about the distinctions between natural and man-made complexity; it teaches us to know the virtues of adaptation and to see the future as a set of possibilities rather than a scripted scenario.\n<\/div>\n
