A compelling argument for including the human perspective within science and for how human experience makes science possible, and a call for a revolutionary scientific worldview, where science includes—rather than ignores—humanity's lived experience as an inescapable part of our search for objective truth.

An award-winning astronomer and physicist’s spellbinding and urgent call for a new Enlightenment and the recognition of the preciousness of life using reason and curiosity—the foundations of science—to study, nurture, and ultimately preserve humanity as we face the existential crisis of climate change.
