The Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence

â€œA history of the human brain from the big bang, fifteen billion years ago, to the day before yesterday . . . It's a delight.â€â€”The New York Times

Dr. Carl Sagan takes us on a great reading adventure, offering his vivid and startling insight into the brain of man and beast, the origin of human intelligence, the function of our most haunting legendsâ€”and their amazing links to recent discoveries.Â

â€œHow can I persuade every intelligent person to read this important and elegant book? . . . He talks about all kinds of things: the why of the pain of human childbirth . . . the reason for sleeping and dreaming . . . chimpanzees taught to communicate in deaf and dumb language . . . the definition of death . . . cloning . . . computers . . . intelligent life on other planets. . . . Fascinating . . . delightful.â€â€”The Boston Globe

â€œIn some lost Eden where dragons ruled, the foundations of our intelligence were laid. . . . Carl Sagan takes us on a guided tour of that lost land. . . . Fascinating . . . entertaining . . . masterful.â€â€”St. Louis Post-Dispatch
