Résumé
In We Are Not Alone, Walter Sullivan non only offers the reader a tour of the universe, showing the likelihood of our sharing it with other civilizations, but also discusses the historical background of our attempts to communicate with other worlds. In the light of the most recent scientific advances, he explores questions that have challenged the world and fired men's imaginations for centuries -- Is there life on Mars? Is our universe unique? Are there visitors from space? What if we succeed in making contact? Is there a "uniquely logical" channel of communication? He explores the immense religious and philosophical problems that will face us if, as we now suspect, we are not alone in the universe.
