The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark

Carl Sagan

Popular Science

Sagan's manifesto for skeptical, evidence-based thinking and his 'baloney detection kit' for spotting pseudoscience. Richard Dawkins prizes it as a poetic, humane defense of reason against credulity, written by a man he considers science's finest communicator — he said he wished he had written it himself.

    Named among Dawkins's life-changing books in his Goodreads interview; he also wrote a Times review praising it.
