Sagan dazzles the mind with the miracle of our survival, framed by the stately galaxies of space. Cosmopolitan

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE FOX MINISERIES COSMOS: POSSIBLE WORLDS, HOSTED BY NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON AND STARRING SETH MACFARLANE AND SIR PATRICK STEWART

In clear-eyed prose, Carl Sagan reveals a jewel-like blue world inhabited by a life form that is just beginning to discover its own identity and to venture into the vast ocean of space. Featuring full-color illustrations, Cosmos retraces the fourteen billion years of cosmic evolution that have transformed matter into consciousness, exploring such topics as the origin of life, the human brain, Egyptian hieroglyphics, spacecraft missions, the death of the Sun, the evolution of galaxies, and the forces and individuals who helped shape modern science.

Portrait

Carl Sagan

Carl Sagan served as the David Duncan Professor of Astronomy and Space Sciences and Director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University. He played a leading role in the Mariner, Viking, Voyager, and Galileo spacecraft expeditions, for which he received the NASA Medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement and (twice) for Distinguished Public Service.

His Emmy- and Peabody– winning television series, Cosmos, became the most widely watched series in the history of American public television. The accompanying book, also called Cosmos, is one of the bestselling science books ever published in the English language. Dr. Sagan received the Pulitzer Prize, the Oersted Medal, and many other awards— including twenty honorary degrees from American colleges and universities— for his contributions to science, literature, education, and the preservation of the environment. In their posthumous award to Dr. Sagan of their highest honor, the National Science Foundation declared that his “ research transformed planetary science . . . his gifts to mankind were infinite. ” Dr. Sagan died on December 20, 1996.

Pressestimmen

Magnificent . . . With a lyrical literary style, and a range that touches almost all aspects of human knowledge, Cosmos often seems too good to be true. The Plain Dealer

Sagan is an astronomer with one eye on the stars, another on history, and a third his mind s on the human condition. Newsday

Brilliant in its scope and provocative in its suggestions . . . shimmers with a sense of wonder. The Miami Herald

Sagan dazzles the mind with the miracle of our survival, framed by the stately galaxies of space. Cosmopolitan

Enticing . . . iridescent . . . imaginatively illustrated. The New York Times Book Review

leider mit Adobe DRM

schade, dass sich Randomhouse für Adobe DRM entschied - die Handhabung ist dadurch derart umständlich, dass ich nur abraten kann - ich kann schon nicht mehr zählen, wie oft ich Benutzername und Passwort eingeben musste, zum verrückt werden...
