A penetrating, mesmerizing biography of a scientific icon, now in paperback "Absolutely fascinating . . . Davidson has done a remarkable job."-Sir Arthur C. Clarke "Engaging . . . accessible, carefully documented . . . sophisticated."-Dr. David Hollinger for The New York Times Book Review "Entertaining . . . Davidson treats the] nuances of Sagan's complex life with understanding and sympathy."-The Christian Science Monitor "Excellent . . . Davidson acts as a keen critic to Sagan's works and their vast uncertainties."-Scientific American "A fascinating book about an extraordinary man."-Johnny Carson "Davidson, an award-winning science writer, has written an absorbing portrait of this Pied Piper of planetary science. Davidson thoroughly explores Sagan's science, wrestles with his politics, and plumbs his personal passions with a telling instinct for the revealing underside of a life lived so publicly."-Los Angeles Times Carl Sagan was one of the most celebrated scientists of this century-the handsome and alluring visionary who inspired a generation to look to the heavens and beyond. His life was both an intellectual feast and an emotional rollercoaster. Based on interviews with Sagan's family and friends, including his widow, Ann Druyan; his first wife, acclaimed scientist Lynn Margulis; and his three sons, as well as exclusive access to many personal papers, this highly acclaimed life story offers remarkable insight into one of the most influential, provocative, and beloved figures of our time-a complex, contradictory prophet of the Space Age.Binding Type: Paperback

Do not fear studying this topic, nor encountering objectors to the truth.
Format: Paperback
The book is written so well. It provides incredible graphs that summarize each chapter and the premise of the book. Gary Habermas is a prolific author of this topic and has to be one of the greatest contemporary Christian historians. Additionally, Michael R. Licona who also is a fantastic author and apologist co-authors the book.
The book provides arguments that are accepted by the majority of historians as to the veracity of the resurrection account. The key to the book is it aids the defender of this truth to not have to include supporting the scripture as part of the argument which can allow the arguer a way to bypass indisputable truths. Early in the book, this is called the Five Facts ( 4 + 1) The first 4 are the strongest arguments and there's the additional Empty Tomb presentation as well.
The 4 are:
1. Jesus' Death by Crucifixion
2. Disciples' BELIEFS that Jesus Appeared
3. Conversion of the Church Persecutor Paul
4. Conversion of the Skeptic James
These historical facts are clearly portrayed and defended and as the book continues arguments are supplied and answered.
Finally, there's a disc with the book "The Resurrection Challenge" !

Superficial, generally you expect more from such books.
Format: Kindle
Weak description of standard views, often very superficial and so on. I expected a little bit more. More basics, more technical aspects. Videos are not available in kindle
