Review: Confessions of an Alien Hunter: A Scientist's Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence


Confessions of an Alien Hunter: A Scientist's Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
Confessions of an Alien Hunter: A Scientist's Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence by Seth Shostak

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



I hear "meetings about meetings" and know there is an ineffectual prelude to and uncertain future. Such is with this alient-hunting literature. I love the subject, but there is really no "there" there: hoaxes, false alarms, and suppositions of what would happen if only... A good narrator and the inside story of the birth and life of SETI make this a good read.
