Making Contact by Sarah Scoles
A brilliant examination of the science behind the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence and its pioneer, Jill Tarter.
“.. written with tremendous energy... [Making Contact's] real strength comes from its depiction of a strange, unreal world where astronomy, science fiction, psychology and politics all collide and have high powered meetings and conferences.” -- BBC Sky at Night
