<p>From the reviews:</p>“‘Mission Mars’ is a short but good introduction to the mission’s architecture, goals and background. … This brief book is in a way also an overview of why go to Mars at all and also why India decided on a Mars mission after their successful Chandrayaan mission. … Lele also describes the conditions on Mars and some of the other future mission to Mars that will be launch either in this launch window or the next one. … I found it a really enjoyable book.” (Kadri Tinn, AstroMadness.com, October, 2013)

The objective of the book is to find an answer to the rationale behind the human quest for the Mars exploration. As a comprehensive assessment for this query is undertaken, it is realized that the basic question ‘Why Mars?’ seeks various responses from technological, economic and geopolitical to strategic perspectives. The book is essentially targeted to understand India’s desire to reach Mars. In the process, it also undertakes some implicit questioning of Mars programmes of various other states essentially to facilitate the setting up of the context for an assessment.
 
The book is divided into two parts:
Part I: This covers both science and politics associated with Mars missions in global scenario and discusses the salient features of various Mars Missions undertaken by various countries.
Part II: This provides details in regards to India’s Mars Mission.
