Book Reviews of The Varieties of Scientific Experience: A Personal View of the Search for God
Book Review: Skeptical musings
Summary: 4 Stars
For previous readers/fans of Sagan, this would have few new insights. It would be a good introduction on the relationship between science and religion for the uninitiated; although not as coherent as "Demon Haunted World."

Summary of The Varieties of Scientific Experience: A Personal View of the Search for God
Carl Sagan's prophetic vision of the tragic resurgence of fundamentalism and the hope-filled potential of the next great development in human spiritualityThe late great astronomer and astrophysicist describes his personal search to understand the nature of the sacred in the vastness of the cosmos. Exhibiting a breadth of intellect nothing short of astounding, Sagan presents his views on a wide range of topics, including the likelihood of intelligent life on other planets, creationism and so-called intelligent design, and a new concept of science as "informed worship." Originally presented at the centennial celebration of the famous Gifford Lectures in Scotland in 1985 but never published, this book offers a unique encounter with one of the most remarkable minds of the twentieth century.
