Opis

If aliens ever contact us, it will be perhaps the single most significant event in human history. And Paul Davies will be responsible for saying something back. For fifty years the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence has been scanning the skies. Now Davies explores what the mysterious silence it has so far encountered could mean.

Recenzje

In an area more given to fabulation than fact, [Paul Davies'] level-headedness is positively refreshing. If you ever start worrying about why no one is talking to us, this is the book to calm you down David Papineau Observer
