Dorion Sagan (born 1959) is an American essayist, fiction writer, poet, and theorist of ecology. He has written and co-authored books on culture, art, literature, evolution, and the history and philosophy of science, including ''Cosmic Apprentice,'' ''Cracking the Aging Code,'' and ''Lynn Margulis: The Life and Legacy of a Scientific Rebel'' (the last, about his mother).

His book ''Into the Cool,'' co-authored with Eric D. Schneider, is about the relationship between non-equilibrium thermodynamics and life.
