About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Join the galactic conversation on the biggest issues in the universe
‘Don't fear change. Don't fear failure. The only thing to fear is loss of ambition. But if you've got plenty of that, then you have nothing to fear at all’ – Neil deGrasse Tyson
Neil deGrasse Tyson is arguably the most influential, acclaimed scientist on the planet. As director of the Hayden Planetarium, and host of Cosmos and StarTalk, he has dedicated his life to exploring and explaining the mysteries of the universe.
Every year, he receives thousands of letters – from students to prisoners, scientists to priests. Some seek advice, others yearn for inspiration; some are full of despair, others burst with wonder. But they are all searching for understanding, meaning and truth.
His replies are by turns wise, funny, and mind-blowing. In this, his most personal book by far, he covers everything from God to the history of science, from aliens to death. He bares his soul – his passions, his doubts, his hopes. The big theme is everywhere in these pages: what is our place in the universe?
The result is an awe-inspiring read and an intimate portal into an incredible mind, which reveals the power of the universe to start conversations and inspire curiosity in all of us.
The full list of narrators includes Victor Bevine, Gabriel Vaughan, Lauren Fortgang, Neil Hellegers, Kevin Free, Vikas Adam, Nick Sullivan, Gabra Zackman, Allyson Johnson, Brandon Rubin, and Piper Goodeve.

Worth Reading/Listening
Book worth reading. Quite an interesting concept about replying to the email. Some of the emails were surprising to say the least, the way the mind operates for few people, gives you real insights. And listening to Neil has always been fascinating. Overall a great book.

It's Neil
just go and listen. one of the greatest educators of 21st century has given you a 6 hour read to get some perspective in various ways. let it be motivation or hate or even skepticism. Neil has managed to give a reply that would be of positivity and hilarious at times . it's even more awesome to hear his voice when he reads his replies
