Title: A must-read for believers and skeptics alike
Review: I started reading DHW only a few months after I had converted from Christianity to agnostic atheism. I'm glad I did, because Carl Sagan gave voice to a lot of the thoughts that had been stewing about in my mind. It also made me understand how even the most intelligent of us can give in to sentimental appeal, and abandon reason.Perhaps the most important thing that this book did, though, was instill a (rational) sense of wonder. Sagan's fascination with the universe comes through in many portions of DHW. And though some people have suggested that Sagan treats science as a religion, I'd disagree; instead, science is simply the best tool for ascertaining the truth, whether or not you believe in god(s).
