I'll put it on my to-rea...Another great review. I'll put it on my to-read list. Very similar to a great nonfiction book I just read called If the Universe Is Teeming With Aliens... Where Is Everybody? Also written by an astrophysicist, it offers 75 solutions to the Fermi Paradox. From what you've written about this book, there may be a little overlap, but not much. And like The Planet Factory, it occasionally gets a little deep into the hard science, but overall was a very enlightening read.<br /><br />I read that book because it was referenced in a science fiction book called After On by Rob Reid. After On came out several months ago, and is a truly great book. Tons of intriguing ideas I had never considered before, one after another, and the characters are more believable than those in most books I've read. Never a dull moment. From social media to synthetic biology, AI to religious philosophy, if you think you know what the book's about, it will change 15 pages later. Extremely well written in my opinion. Would love to see your take on either of these books. Love the site. Thanks again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
