有一本差不多同时期的书，叫 Bryan Burrough 写的《蜻蜓：NASA与和平号上的危机》（Dragonfly: NASA and the Crisis Aboard Mir）。我记得它当年刚出版时引发过一些争议，但调查报道做得极其扎实严谨。我至今依然推荐这本书。
There's a roughly contemporary book "Dragonfly: NASA and the Crisis Aboard Mir" by Bryan Burrough that I recall being somewhat controversial when it came out but also very carefully reported. I do recommend it still.
If you like this, you should definitely read "Dragonfly: NASA and the crisis aboard Mir" by Bryan Burrough. It's an amazing portrait of the disintegrating immediately-ex-Soviet space program, and the disintegrating space station they were trying to keep flying.…
刚开始读《蜻蜓：NASA与和平号上的危机》[http://www.amazon.com/Dragonfly-NASA-And-Crisis-Aboard/dp/08...]。看起来是部很有趣的作品，讲的是90年代困扰 NASA 和俄罗斯的各种难题。
Just started reading Dragonfly: NASA And The Crisis Aboard Mir [http://www.amazon.com/Dragonfly-NASA-And-Crisis-Aboard/dp/08...]. It seems to be an interesting story about problems that plagued NASA and Russia in the 90s.
> 我的疑问是，NASA 有没有从中吸取教训并在后续任务中改进排期（scheduling）？看起来他们在国际空间站（ISS）上做到了，不知我说的对不对？他们在这方面的表现好坏参半。如果你去读 Bryan Burrough 的《蜻蜓》，里面收录了一些一手当事人自述，你就会发现去过和平号空间站的 NASA 宇航员在这方面的际遇各有不同，但总体表现出来的状态就是松懈懈怠、人手严重不足，导致……
> My question is did NASA learn from this and improved the scheduling for future missions? Seems they have with ISS unless I’m wrong? They have a mixed record. If you read Bryan Burrough's Dragonfly, which includes some first-hand accounts, you can see that the NASA astronauts who visited Mir had varied results in this regard but the overall pattern was that of a lax, highly understaffed effort towards…
……《科罗廖夫》（Korolev）、William Burrough 的《这片新海洋》（This New Ocean）等著作都以更加写实的方式描绘了苏联当年的航天工程，展现出那是一场何等浩大而严谨的壮举。即便是 Bryan Burrough 的《蜻蜓》——该书对俄罗斯人极其挑剔苛刻，并详述了和平号空间站上不少危及生命的事故险情——也根本没有像 Strausbaugh 那样把俄罗斯人描绘成一群笨手笨脚的蠢货。……
…Korolev, William Burrough’s This New Ocean, and other works all portray the Soviet effort in a much more realistic manner and demonstrate what a massive and serious effort it was. Even Bryan Burrough’s Dragonfly, which is highly critical of the Russians and details more than a few life-threatening misadventures aboard the Mir Space Station, does not portray the Russians as clods the way that Strausbaugh does.…

如果你喜欢这个，一定要去读读 Bryan Burrough 写的《蜻蜓：NASA与和平号上的危机》。它生动绝伦地刻画了刚解体后的前苏联航天体系有多么分崩离析，以及他们试图维持运转的那座摇摇欲坠的空间站。……

多谢。这个我还没看过，不过我确实在 Brian Burrough 的《蜻蜓》里读到过这起事件。
Thanks. I haven't seen this, I did read about the incident in Brian Burrough's Dragonfly.
