The text draws strength from poetic insight and literary craft, linking past discoveries, present inquiry, and future questions. It emphasizes scientific accomplishment, celebrates curiosity, and frames survival and the human condition against the grandeur of space and time.","COSMOS  \nThe Book  \n“Cosmos is magnificent, challenging.… One of the book’s strengths is the way it traces today’s knowledge and today’s scientific method to their historical roots. It is enthusiasm, plus Dr. Sagan’s poetic insight and literary skill, that makes this an eminently readable book.”  \nThe Christian Science Monitor  \n“Carl Sagan is one of the most brilliant scientists of our times.… He has done an excellent writing job as he delves into the past, present, and future of science, dealing with the mindstaggering enormity of the cosmos in which we exist.”  \nAssociated Press  \n“Pulitzer Prize winner Carl Sagan has gathered the whole glittering universe into one magnificent book.…He blends science and philosophy in a text of such lyric energy.…Sagan dazzles the mind with the miracle of our survival, framed by the stately galaxies of space.”  \nCosmopolitan  \nCOSMOS  \nThe Book  \n“The past year … saw that extraordinary television series, Cosmos, on the Public Broadcasting Service; these programs initiated tens of millions of viewers not only into the wonders of space but also into awareness of the deepest scientific questions concerning the nature and origin of the world, of life, of humankind. Carl Sagan’s book Cosmos is not the script of the television series but rather a full-fledged account, mostly in chronological order, of the great human efforts at scientific accomplishment. Cosmos gives the reader the opportunity to explore in depth.… will make the writings of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells seem prosaic.”  \nThe Christian Century  \n“In just a few years, Sagan … has become Mr. Science, a widely respected popularizer able to link the stuff and history of life with the vastness of space and eternity. And he does it with a grace and élan that persuades you, for the moment at least, that nothing is more exciting or more important,”  \nChicago Tribune  \n“Sagan is an astronomer with one eye on the stars, another on history, and a third—his mind’s—on the human condition   We admire him greatly for his ambition and erudition, occasionally for the grace of his prose, and often for amazing us about our universe and ourselves.”  \nNewsday  \n“A fine work of popular science, with an unusual dose of imagination and vision.”  \nThe San Diego Union  \n“Sagan knows precisely how to excite the imagination of the lay reader and hold his interest from first page to last.… Here is this mind-  \nstretching book to take us on the most fascinating of all voyages, knowledgeable, beautifully written, and strikingly illustrated. Every intelligent reader should read, mark, learn and inwardly digest Sagan’s cosmic story.”  \nJohn Barkham Reviews  \n“Magnificent … Sagan’s inquiry into man within nature is free from superstition and pessimism.…A grand vision.”  \nThe American Rationalist  \nCOSMOS  \nThe Television Series  \nThe most widely watched series in the history of American public television, Cosmos, has now been viewed by over 200 million people in more than 60 countries.  \n“Cosmos is perhaps the most original and unique contribution to television programming made during the past three years.… superior at every level. It entertains, instructs, informs, excites and inspires.… great attention to clarity and scholarship … exceptional respect for the viewing public. Cosmos is a triumph for Dr. Sagan, for science television programming and for the American people.”  \nOhio State University  \nAnnual Award for Television Excellence  \nBy Carl Sagan  \nPublished by
