Carl Sagan's Universe

To millions, the late Carl Sagan became eponymous with the science of cosmology and, in fact, the pursuit of scientific inquiry in general. This book, which followed his death in late 1996, is a collection of essays recounting the many facets of scientific inquiry--from planetary probes to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence--on which he made his mark. Among the noteworthy authors are physicist Kip Thorne and famous debunker James Randi. Carl Sagan's Universe is a touching tribute to a man who left an immutable mark upon modern science.
