About this listen

In the final book of his astonishing career, Carl Sagan brilliantly examines the burning questions of our lives, our world, and the universe around us. These luminous, entertaining essays travel both the vastness of the cosmos and the intimacy of the human mind, posing such fascinating questions as how did the universe originate and how will it end, and how can we meld science and compassion to meet the challenges of the coming century? Here, too, is a rare, private glimpse of Sagan's thoughts about love, death, and God as he struggled with fatal disease. Ever forward-looking and vibrant with the sparkle of his unquenchable curiosity, Billions & Billions is a testament to one of the great scientific minds of our day.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Reading this reminded me how much I mourn Sagan's passing. His level of understanding and clarity of voice are sadly missed.
I only wish he could have read his own work.

Clear and concise.

Wonderful collection of assorted works by Carl Sagan. The epilogue by Ann Druyan is extremely touching. Would highly recommend for any fans of Carl Sagan or science in general.

Incredibly moving
