I really enjoyed The Light of the Stars by Adam Frank, a professor in the University of Rochester’s Physics and Astronomy department.

Most of the book is a summary of life beginning on Earth, followed by a re-thinking of the Fermi Paradox taking into account our own anthropocene, and finishing with some numerical experimentation.
