Letters from an Astrophysicist
<BR>INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!<BR><BR>Join the galactic conversation on the biggest issues in the universe, from the 'most popular scientist in the world'<BR><BR>'Don't fear change. Don't fear failure. The only thing to fear is loss of ambition. But if you've got plenty of that, then you have nothing to fear at all' - Neil deGrasse Tyson<BR><BR>Neil deGrasse Tyson is arguably the most influential, acclaimed scientist on the planet. As director of the Hayden Planetarium, and host of Cosmos and StarTalk, he has dedicated his life to exploring and explaining the mysteries of the universe.<BR><BR>Every year, he receives thousands of letters - from students to prisoners, scientists to priests. Some seek advice, others yearn for inspiration; some are full of despair, others burst with wonder. But they are all searching for understanding, meaning and truth.<BR><BR>His replies are by turns wise, funny, and mind-blowing. In this, his most personal book by far, he covers everything from God to the history of science, from aliens to death. He bares his soul - his passions, his doubts, his hopes. The big theme is everywhere in these pages: what is our place in the universe?<BR><BR>The result is an awe-inspiring read and an intimate portal into an incredible mind, which reveals the power of the universe to start conversations and inspire curiosity in all of us.

Im Spiegel des Kosmos
'Das Gute an der Wissenschaft ist, dass sie wahr ist, ob Sie daran glauben oder nicht.' Neil deGrasse TysonDer berühmte Astrophysiker und Bestsellerautor Neil deGrasse Tyson wirft ein neues Licht auf die brennenden Themen unserer Zeit - Krieg, Politik, Religion, Wahrheit, Ästhetik, Gender, Race - und verdeutlicht, wie uns Wissenschaft in der Tradition der Aufklärung Lösungen bieten kann. So tiefsinnig, verständlich und witzig wurde Kosmologie seit Stephen Hawking nicht mehr erzählt.Wir leben in einer Zeit, in der uns politische und kulturelle Sichtweisen zunehmend trennen. Doch wir äußern meist nur, was wir für wahr halten oder wahr halten wollen, ohne Rücksicht darauf, was wahr ist. Wir haben den Blick dafür verloren, was Fakten von Meinungen unterscheidet, und üben schließlich Gewalt aus, wo wir friedlich zusammenleben könnten. Neil deGrasse Tyson vollzieht in seinem neuesten Werk einen spannenden Perspektivenwechsel: So wie Galileo Galileis Erkenntnisse über das Universum die Menschen veranlasste, ihre Überzeugungen zu hinterfragen, plädiert er für ein Nachdenken über das Leben in seinem größtmöglichen Kontext - aus Sicht des Kosmos, der Sterne und Planeten. Unterhaltsam und anschaulich entwirft er Lösungen für die globalen Konflikte und leitet daraus brillante Wahrheiten über unser Dasein ab.

Starry Messenger
Bringing his cosmic perspective to civilization on Earth, Neil deGrasse Tyson, bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, shines new light on the crucial fault lines of our time-war, politics, religion, truth, beauty, gender, race, and tribalism-in a way that stimulates a deeper sense of unity for us all.In a time when our political and cultural perspectives feel more divisive than ever, Tyson provides a much-needed antidote to so much of what divides us, while making a passionate case for the twin engines of enlightenment-a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science.After thinking deeply about how a scientist views the world and about what Earth looks like from space, Tyson has found that terrestrial thoughts change as our brain resets and recalibrates life's priorities, along with the actions we might take in response. As a result, no outlook on culture, society, or civilisation remains untouched.In Starry Messenger, Tyson reveals just how human the enterprise of science is. Far from a cold, unfeeling undertaking, scientific methods, tools, and discoveries have shaped modern civilisation and created the landscape we've built for ourselves on which to live, work, and play. Tyson shows how an infusion of science and rational thinking renders worldviews deeper and more informed than ever before-and exposes unfounded perspectives and unjustified emotions.With crystalline prose and an abundance of evidence, Starry Messenger walks us through the scientific palette that sees and paints the world differently. From lessons on resolving global conflict to reminders of how precious it is to be alive, Tyson reveals, with warmth and eloquence, ten surprising, brilliant, and beautiful truths of human society, informed and enlightened by knowledge of our place in the universe.
