Science! submitted by cballard on July 8, 2016, 8:13pm A brilliant analysis of science and the scientific method. Although the material is a little dated, the principles are solid. Sagan has the ability to light the fire of scientific inquiry in his reader.
Beautiful Coamos submitted by SolaireFQ on July 19, 2016, 7:32pm This boom was beautifully written and so i teresting. It felt more like reading an epic that a popular science book. This is worth reading by anybody and everybody.
