America’s favorite astrophysicist has written the most entertaining and universally appealing book of his stellar career: a practical guide for dealing with Alien visitors, an exploration of how it might happen, and a cultural history of our fascination with extraterrestrials.

“Ever since childhood,” writes Neil deGrasse Tyson, “I’ve wanted to be abducted by Aliens.”

Take Me to Your Leader is the culmination of a lifetime of fascination, speculation, and the amassing of scientific data about the possibility of Aliens visiting Earth. Drawing on a wealth of depictions from history, literature, pop culture, and film, Tyson applies the universal laws of physics to make the case for what Aliens might look like, act like, how they might travel through the universe to reach us, and what they might think of us upon arrival. Should such an event occur, Tyson further offers useful etiquette tips for your first close encounter.

If you’ve ever wondered why there are so many UFO sightings, or whether Aliens might already be among us, Tyson offers an informed perspective that is both factual and fun. Take Me to Your Leader is a tantalizing exploration of what would be the most mind-blowing experience of your life—the book for anyone who has ever wondered: Are we alone?

Its really fun thinking about what aliens would be from a genuine scientific perspective. Of course it helps having Dr. Degrasse Tyson reading.

So glad Neil deGrasse Tyson narrated his book! It really does matter, especially with scientific or technical topics.

I’m equally as pleased that he put so much thought and consideration into this topic as well as adding in extra stuff. I had no idea where we got the word “plumber”! This is the stuff that sticks with me and I appreciate it!!

Great timing & narrator

I enjoy watching Neil on Star Talk and I have enjoyed his other work . While he did give away some of this book the other day on a YouTube video. I still enjoyed this very much.

Great read Great on Audio

What I appreciate most about Neil deGrasse Tyson’s book is his gift for making massive scientific ideas accessible. He does a fantastic job of explaining the brutal realities of space travel, showing why it’s almost impossible for us (or any biological organism) to survive the immense distances of our galaxy. He also applies that same logic to the UFO conversation, neatly dismantling the idea that these sightings are extraterrestrial visitors. It’s fascinating, clear, and makes you appreciate the true scale of the universe.
