Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization
Categories: Science & Math
In Starry Messenger, Neil deGrasse Tyson brings a scientist's cosmic perspective down to Earth. He takes on some of the most divisive subjects of our time, including war, politics, religion, gender, and race, and argues that a scientific outlook can help us see past what divides us. Published in 2022, the book takes its title from Galileo's 1610 work. Tyson sometimes imagines how visiting aliens would see our habits and contradictions.
