WE ARE NOT ALONE . . . At first it seemed impossible - a radio signal that came not from Earth but from far beyond the nearest stars. But then the signal was translated, and what had been impossible became terrifying. For the signal contains the information to build a Machine that can travel to the stars.

Seller's Description:
Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
This book is a little too abstract and fact oriented to have any excitement or dramatic pacing to the plot. It was written by a very brainy mathematician. Ideal book for a math college student.
