Book to find

Contact

Contact has inspired so many of us and is worthy of a vote. Written by Carl Sagan this novel clearly is iconoclastic and cuts a deep edge. Utilizing his scientific background, experience and beliefs, a tantalizing story is told about a long scientific search and the reception of a message from outside earth. Geeky but with the all scrapes of scientific reality, the search turns up a signal that ruptures into a voyage of discovery with a healthy mix of skeptical inquiry and science fiction. For me Contact is a great novel, even if SETI doesn't produce in my lifetime.
