## Description

Carl Sagan: A Life [Davidson, Keay] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Carl Sagan: A Life

Review: Wonderful book - It's well-written, has just enough facts (but not too many), and suits my research purposes. I would recommend reading it.
Review: I would give 4.5 - Sometimes Davidson comes off as too sympathetic to postmodernism, as if he has friends in that camp he must satisfy. Otherwise, this book is fantastic reading and made me understand Sagan as a man not as the demigod he became.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful book
*by V***Y on February 26, 2013*

It's well-written, has just enough facts (but not too many), and suits my research purposes. I would recommend reading it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I would give 4.5
*by D***Y on October 18, 2016*

Sometimes Davidson comes off as too sympathetic to postmodernism, as if he has friends in that camp he must satisfy. Otherwise, this book is fantastic reading and made me understand Sagan as a man not as the demigod he became.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Mixed
*by D***N on October 29, 1999*

I have mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, this book is very well written and very interesting. It kept my interest from start to finish and was hard to put down. The detailed anecdotes and thoughts of Sagan's friends, colleagues and family members make for very interesting reading. I also came away with an enhanced respect for Sagan as a scientist. On the other hand, I think Davidson goes to far injecting his personal anti-science opinions and in tearing down Sagan's books. For instance, Davidson goes on a tirade trashing "Dragons of Eden", which was a magnificent achievement. I think there was some jealousy of Sagan among scientific circles, since it was Sagan who got all the attention. Maybe Davidson is a little jealous of Sagan's mega-success too. Despite this, I do feel the book is worth reading.
