3.0 out of 5 stars NOT ENOUGH STAR STUFF, July 15, 2005

As a Sagan fan I was hoping for more. The lectures are out of date, of course, and the statisics are totally off the wall now with new info for 15 years but I knew and expect that going in. What disappointed me was that this very small collection has so much repetative material. The man gave lectures for 30 years on TV, talk shows, radio, books and in hundreds of classes and all that they could find was a few repeat lectures?
It still gets 3 stars because if you haven't heard Sagan, and you have any interest in if "we are alone," then this is still a worth while buy. If you'd like to him at his best try "The Demon Haunted World."

This is an outstanding read for anyone who is interested in the big picture. Mr. Sagan is a master of revealing man's folly and stresses the importance of critical thinking skills all the while revealing the majesty of the universe and its potential for life elsewhere. This is a must for any responsible thinking individual.
