A LIBRARIAN’S ORIENTATION
What this book explores
Brings the science and history of SETI into sustained conversation with Christian questions about creation, human significance, incarnation, and redemption.
Good starting place if…
You want one volume that takes both the scientific search and Christian theological implications seriously.
Know before you begin…
The scientific landscape has changed since 2013, so current mission details need newer sources. Its theological and historical questions remain useful; it does not report a detection.
