Billions & Billions: Thoughts on Life and Death at the Brink of the Millennium by Carl Sagan
3.0
Definitely a good read. Starts off a bit slow but picks up, especially toward the end.
Sagan is a great, clear writer. Not too flowery and grandiose, but not dry and boring. He really hits a nice medium between them.
Some of the book seems a bit dated after a decade and a half or so, but other parts are horrifyingly relevant even today.
Worth a read.
