In the final book of his astonishing career, Carl Sagan brilliantly examines the burning questions of our lives, our world, and the universe around us. These luminous, entertaining essays travel both the vastness of the cosmos and the intimacy of the human mind, posing such fascinating questions as how did the universe originate and how will it end, and how can we meld science and compassion to meet the challenges of the coming century?

A valuable, broad perspective on humanity
Revisado: 05-15-19
The content of Carl Sagans words in this book are detailed, with an eloquent passion and concern for our species and the ones we share this planet with. This final piece of his life's body of work has emphasised what his previous work has done for me personally, inspired a will to question, be inquisitive as to the truth of matters, not shrouding in mystecism... and above all, to acknowledge the intrinsic connection, web that we live within this cosmos.

Critical perspective, beautifully articulated.

A critically important perspective for ours and other species, and the cosmos. Beautifully, scientifically and poetically delivered by a virtuoso for courageously scientific inquiry into nature of the universe. Thank you Carl Sagan.

The Nature of Investing calls for a transformation of the investment process from the roots up. Drawing on the author's twenty-plus years of leadership experience in top investment firms, the book connects real-world finance with the field of biomimicry. Citing real-life examples and discussing principles from the natural world, The Nature of Investing shows how we can create an investment framework that is different from the mechanized one currently employed.

Fiercely important paradigm shift
Revisado: 12-30-17
A fiercely important shift in paradigm, that human needs to and will eventually turn to. The way we invest, what the true essence of it is, is beautifully deconstructed by Katherine Collins and the narrator in this audio book. An elegant, abstract use of the practice of Biomimicry ... a practice that will bring our species back home.

Amazing story! Inspiring man. Appendix downfall.
Revisado: 02-15-17
Loved every moment of learning more about this man's story. Surely the ripples of what he is doing will be felt for decades to come. Looking forward to following more.
The audio book was wonderful. The only downfall being that the appendixes were only read out at the end, rather than where they were relevant to the story ... detracting from the end of the book somewhat.
