Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Can confirm that the book (Paul Davies) was a mind-blowing read. I had never heard of looking for life with reverse helix chirality.
I read the book, and even wrote a review of it, but I really think "Eerie Silence" is a bit of an exaggeration. The search space that we know of is vast, and we've only covered a small part of it. Sometimes absence of evidence really is evidence of absence, but I don't believe this is such a case.
You should check out the book/audio book. One the best SETI books out there, if not the best. It's like the 10 hour version of this lecture.
