Book Reviews of Conversations with Carl Sagan (Literary Conversations)
Book Review: Conversations with Carl Sagan
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an outstanding read for anyone who is interested in the big picture. Mr. Sagan is a master of revealing man's folly and stresses the importance of critical thinking skills in todays policy decision making. Science and the scientific method as "the" way to understand the world, could not be made any more clear. We have authority in our leadership, but we do not have experts or professionals. Authority has been wrong in the past and it will be wrong again. Without a self corresting "standard" to which conclusions can be drawn (the scientific method), Dr. Sagan, through his many interviews, eloquently reveals the dangers of errant thinking. Carl Sagans perspective on life is needed now more than ever. This is a must read for any responsible forward thinking individual.
