Description
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a world-famous American astrophysicist and science communicator, host of the podcast and TV show StarTalk on National Geographic, and author of many bestsellers!
Neil deGrasse Tyson— the world-famous American astrophysicist and science communicator, host of the podcast and TV show StarTalk on National Geographic, director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in Manhattan. Author of many bestsellers.
As an astrophysicist—meaning someone closer to the stars and higher above the Earth than all of us—Neil deGrasse Tyson offers a top-down view of the sore points of our civilization—war, politics, religion, truth, beauty, and differences between people—to feel our unity more sharply.
In times when contradictions have reached their peak, the author offers an antidote to hostility—a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science, the main supports of enlightenment. By thinking deeply about Earth as a planet and how scientists look at the world, we can still rearrange priorities and rebuild our system of values.
The author reminds us of our place in the vast Universe and how the road to life is paved—and that it is precisely on this maximum that the main truths about the world and people are built.
This book contains additional material in the form of a PDF file that you can download on the audiobook page on the website after purchasing it.
