Blurb: PICTURE AN ALIEN IN YOUR HEAD.
I don't mean conjure up a skull-dwelling parasite that feeds off your bad dreams and insecurities, though this is indeed an option. Any alien, any-where. What do you see? I'm willing to bet it's a smallish humanoid with a bald, oversize head, creepily slender fingers, and big, dark, gorgeous eyes that a thousand astronauts could drown in.
You'll be pleased (or terrified) to hear that this creature, the archetypal
"Grey" from abduction stories and sci-fi, does indeed skulk around out there in the vastness of space-provided our universe is infinitely large.
"This look at some of the key questions of the cosmos, and human interactions with it, is brain food with flair, and nearly impossible to put down-what a fun ride this book is!"
-ALAN STERN, PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR OF NASA'S NEW HORIZONS
PLUTO MISSION AND FORMER HEAD OF THE SPACE AGENCY'S
SCIENCE MISSION DIRECTORATE
"Perhaps since the dawn of language, humankind's most profound quest has been to answer the question-'Are we alone?' Mr. Wall's book takes us on an insightful, engaging, and at times humorous journey through the cosmos, and explains why we may now be on the verge of answering that question!"
-BILL DIAMOND, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF THE SETI INSTITUTE“
