Summary: Read the book in one night...
Comment: Of course it took all night and I called in sick the next day.

It was terrific. A refreshingly scientific approach --by a real scientist no less -- to the big "What if?" without requiring the reader to have a desk reference handy. Pickover manages to get the point across in a logical yet entertaining style that should keep most people glued to the pages. Sure, he makes a couple of leaps, but hey, we're talking about ALIENS.

This was my first exposure to Pickover. It will definately not be my last.

If you like the subject matter but are tired of all the self-published kooks out there then this is your book.

Summary: Great book! Highly recommended!
Comment: I just finished reading The Science of Aliens. It is a fascinating read for those interested in exobiology and such things. Cliff has obviously done his research and spent a considerable amount of time pondering the issues related to the
topic. This is not just a collection of speculations on what aliens might be like. For each supposition, you get real life examples of creatures right here on Earth who exhibit some of these very same characteristics and behaviors. And, since a picture is worth a thousand words, Cliff has included a number of artists' renderings, which are extremely helpful in picturing the descriptions. To anyone who is considering this title, I highly recommend it!
