“Dazzling . . . a feast. Absorbing and elegantly written, it tells of the origins of life on earth, describes its variety and character, and culminates in a discussion of human nature and the complex traces of humankind’s evolutionary past. . . . It is an amazing story, masterfully told.”—Financial Times (London)
“As in much of his previous work, Sagan has framed the debate—concise, elegant, and provocative as always.”—San Diego Union-Tribune
“A BIG book about BIG questions—‘Who are we? Where do we come from? Why are we this way and no other? What does it mean to be human?’ With all the Sagan/Druyan trademarks—crystal-clear exposition . . . eye-popping anecdotes . . . crack science writing for the masses.”—Kirkus Reviews
