Description

Explore the profound questions of existence with Astrobiology, History, and Society by Springer. This comprehensive text examines the search for life beyond Earth and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) through a historical and social lens. Part of the Advances in Astrobiology and Biogeophysics series, the book is organized into three distinct sections to provide a clear understanding of the field. It begins with the historical debate regarding the plurality of worlds from antiquity through the nineteenth century. The second section transitions into modern scientific discussions, covering the extraterrestrial life debate from the twentieth century to the present day. Beyond the scientific data, this book looks at how discovering life elsewhere would change our world. It examines the societal impact of such a discovery, including the cultural and religious dimensions that would follow. Authors throughout the work connect their research to other chapters, creating a cohesive look at how science, history, and human society meet in the study of the cosmos.
