Book Alert: Alien Earths (16 April 2024)

With infectious enthusiasm, Lisa Kaltenegger creatively analyzes our world and links our understanding of alien worlds (and the possibility of life) to the grand story of Earth's own past, revealing the hidden links in Earth's history and its astonishing biosphere, and our quest. In Alien Earths, she takes us on an eye-opening journey to the most unusual exoplanets that have shaken our worldview, the worlds of science fiction - and the best contenders for Alien Earths.

Kirkus' starred Review calls Alien Earths "Absorbing, informative, and entertaining”, Alan Alda describes it as "fascinating and tantalizing", Sci-Fi author Alastair Reynolds adds that after reading the book, you "feel your cosmic perspective shift just a little on its axis....", Michael Mayor, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for the Discovery of the first Extrasolar Planet concludes "Do you want to prepare yourself for the next 'Copernican revolution'? Then read Lisa Kaltenegger's book! Fascinating."
