ET, Are You Out There?: The question of intelligent life on other worlds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798828860104)

Is there anybody out there? Are other intelligent life forms lurking in outer space - or are they already here?

This calm, intelligent and witty survey of the history of humankind's search for extraterrestrial life brilliantly outlines the historical, fictional, speculative and emerging scientific opinions on what alien life might be like.

The fast-moving narrative examines facts, dispels myths and focuses on the possibilities lurking in space. In a popular and easy-to-read style, the author uses current research to speculate what life is like on exoplanets (or extra-solar planets), how we might communicate with it, and what Earth might seem like to visitors.
