Billions & Billions: Thoughts on Life and Death at the Brink of the Millennium by Carl Sagan

4.0

Sagan is erudite and eloquent as ever. Although the chapters on technology and economics are a tad dated and meandering, this interdisciplinary book covers a lot of ground worth revisiting for anyone intellectually curious. The last section, In the Valley of the Shadow, is such a profoundly poignant and personal rumination about life, love and meaning that alone is worth regular re-reading.
