Reseña del editor:
Selected by Choice magazine as an "Outstanding Academic Title" for 2014
“This book is a very well-balanced, detailed analysis of the subject. ... This is one of the best books on the subject; it belongs in all college libraries. Summing Up: Essential. All levels/libraries.” (K. L. Schick, Choice, Vol. 51 (7), March, 2014)
“Are we alone in the universe? If not, then what might that mean? This fascinating volume offers a history of what Western cultures have thought about these questions ... . a useful source for scientists, historians, anthropologists, and many other disciplines that concern themselves with these two large questions. ... This volume nicely reveals the numerous ways in which anthropological knowledge and methods can help us think about and plan for managing the cultural impact of an eventual first contact.” (James Strick, Journal for the History of Astronomy, Vol. 47 (1), 2016)
“In this book you can find out about the first philosophers, writers and scientists who were interested in the possibility of life on other planets and get to know the reasons why it was considered possible by them and what actually led to their depictions of life elsewhere in literature. ... Overall this book makes for really interesting reading if you’re interested in extraterrestrial life and astrobiology.” (Kadri Tinn, AstroMadness.com, December, 2013)This book explores the societal, anthropological, and religious dimensions of astrobiology and the search for life beyond Earth, including extraterrestrial intelligence. It examines how the discovery of extraterrestrial life would impact human society.
