Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“In his engaging chronicle. . . . Squeri argues, SETI amounted to more than just a scientific enterprise; it was a kind of ‘offbeat political movement,’ a utopian ideology and perhaps surrogate religion—with aliens serving as our more enlightened counterparts."
New York Times

"Chronicles the history of SETI: the people behind it, the search for signals from deep space, and the hopes for bettering Earth through alien contact."
