A good book about Skylab, America's first space station

I hope this book returns to print sometime. It is a history of the Skylab space station program. It discusses in detail the experiences of the astronauts who called Skylab home for months at a time, and the experiments they performed. I hope that the people who designed the International Space Station read this book, because it talks a lot about how different types of people (scientists versus pilots) reacted to different aspect of living in a gravity-free environment and how people coped with the various problems associated with space station life.
