Thirty-Three Weeks on the New York Times bestseller list!
Dr. Carl Sagan takes us on a great reading adventure, offering his
vivid and startling insight into the brain of man and beast,
the origin of huma intelligence, the function of our most haunting legends -- and
their amazing links to recent discoveries.
"How can I persuade every intelligent person to read this important and
elegant book?...
He talks about all kinds of things:
the why of the pain of human childbirth... the reason for sleeping
and dreaming... chimpanzees taught to communicate in deaf and dumb
language... the definition of death... cloing... computers...
intelligent life on other planets... Facinating... Delightful."
-- The Boston Globe
"A history of the human brain from the big bang, fifteen billion
years ago, to the day before yesterday... It's a delight."
