5.0 out of 5 stars Best SETI book on the market (ever), 17 Dec 2002
I bought this book, among many others on the same topic for reference for my MSc Thesis. This is the only out of the two dozen or so that I have read that really gives a good overview of SETI. It explains all the essential science in enough depth and clarity, that anyone can find it useful, whether they be a schoolboy or a professional scientist. Most books on SETI either come off as the raveings of a madman or are so high brow that they are virtually unintelligiable. This book is neither, whether for light christmas reading, or serious scientific investigation, I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
