asza 's review for:

The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan
5.0

I first read this my freshman year of college, which was *gulp* 10 years ago now. It was for a 101 level philosophy class at my poor, beaten down community college and that class + this book changed the course of my life.

While Sagan does dive a bit into debunking popular myths at the time, like alien abductions, the core purpose of this book is teaching readers the importance and skills for critical thought. Revisiting this book in early 2023 really, WHEW! We're really in it now Carl Sagan!!
