Special Edition for the 10th Anniversary of Carl Sagan's Death

The classic science textbook, Cosmos. In this book, the author provides an interesting explanation of the birth of the universe, the evolution of galaxies, the life and death of the sun, the process by which dust floating in space becomes conscious life, and the question of the existence of extraterrestrial life, with hundreds of photos and illustrations. The author, a renowned scientist representing modern astronomy, fully demonstrates his amazing ability to capture people's imagination and clearly explain difficult concepts in this book.

He follows the path pioneered by scientific explorers such as Eratosthenes, Democritus, Hypatia, Kepler, Galileo, Newton, and Darwin, and explains in an easy-to-understand manner the achievements that science has made, is making, and will make in the past, present, and future. He also combines the development of science with profound philosophical reflections and reexamines the development of the human spirit that explored the cosmos in the context of the grand history of civilization.
This popular edition, produced as a special edition to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Carl Sagan's death, is notable for containing the full text, although it differs from the previously published hardcover edition in the number of photos and the black-and-white photos. Ultimately, it is not lacking in understanding the core content, but it is available at a low price, so it will be a good opportunity for readers who have been hesitant to purchase it.
