This seminal work is reproduced here for a whole new generation to enjoy. In Sagan's typically lucid, lyrical style, he discusses many topics from astrophysics and solar system science, to colonization of other worlds, terraforming and the search for extraterrestrials. Sagan conveys his own excitement and wonder, and relates the revelations of astronomy to the most profound human problems and concerns: issues that are just as valid today as they were 30 years ago. New to this edition are Freeman Dyson's comments on Sagan's vision and the importance of the work, Ann Druyan's assessment of Sagan's cultural significance as a champion of science, and David Morrison's discussion of the advances made since 1973 and what became of Sagan's predictions.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 231mmItem Length: 157mmItem Width: 23mmItem Weight: 640gAuthor: Carl SaganContributor: Jerome Agel (Edited by)Genre: Science Nature & MathTopic: Home Garden & PetsRelease Year: 2000 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
