Smile Me 163 tailless design

I'm reseaching the Me 163 for a talk I'm giving shortly and am attempting to ascertain the advantages of the tailless Lippisch configuration over the more conventional designs and why the RLM decreed that this radical new design be mated with the Walter rocket motor to produce the Me 163. A Google search for 'tailless aircraft' has found only complex aeronautical articles which are far beyond a non-technical person such as myself!

Any assistance would be most appreciated.
