Carl Sagan: Cosmos (1980, Random House)
365쪽
언어: English
Published 1980년 1월 5일 by Random House.
This is a book about Eratosthenes, Ptolemy, Kepler, Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton; about the Milky Way, about gaseous planets without a surface, and a universe of a hundred billion galaxies. It is about whirlpool galaxies and the ancient Library at Alexandria, Egypt - the place "where we humans first collected, seriously and systematically, the knowledge of the world."
A journey through the universe, science & their development, brimming with passion & wonder. 50 years old but feels timeless, except nuclear angst has been replaced by climate angst.

Still as relevant today as it was when it first came out in 1980, Cosmos is a book that I'd recommend to anyone and everyone. Watching the original series after you read each chapter is an addition way to enjoy this incredible work by Carl Sagan.
