Summary
Milan M. Ćirković: What is SETI? And why we need it
The central theme of this book is a versatile and critical consideration of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, as well as the author's effort to inform the reader comprehensively, but as clearly and succinctly as possible, about the related topics of the fate of intelligence on Earth and human improvement as the ultimate step towards building a post-biological civilization. The language in which this book is written is clear and scientifically precise, but at the same time easily understandable even to a completely uninformed reader.
Although Milan Ćirković modestly insists on the educational and popularizing intention of his text, what came out from under his spiritual pen reaches much further and in fact tells a fascinating story about the eternal aspiration of man to know the world that surrounds him and somewhere in the imaginary space between First Contact and the Great Silence determine his place and future in it.
