{"product_id":"for-small-creatures-such-as-we","title":"For Small Creatures Such As We","description":"Product Description       Sasha Sagan's parents - the astronomer Carl Sagan and the writer and producer, Ann Druyan - taught her that the natural world and vast cosmos are full of profound beauty, and that science reveals truths more wondrous than any myth or fable. When Sagan herself became a mother, she began her own hunt for the phenomena behind our most treasured occasions - from births to deaths, holidays to weddings, anniversaries, and more - growing these roots into a new set of rituals for her young daughter to honour the joy and significance of each experience without relying on a religious framework. Part memoir, part handbook and part social history, For Small Creatures Such as We is a luminous exploration of all of Earth's marvels that requires no faith in order to be believed.       Review       Thirty books to help us understand the world in 2020: Carl Sagan ( ) is sadly no longer with us. But his daughter, Sasha Sagan, honours his legacy in her wonderful new book. ( ) Sasha invites us to appreciate the everyday wonders of life through the eyes of science, sharing a worldview instilled by her unique upbringing, which she delightfully recounts for us. Read this book and feel a bit better about our world, our universe, and our place in it. --The Observer New Review       About the Author       Sasha Sagan holds a degree in Dramatic Literature from New York University.
