Enthusiastic but surprisingly objective
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
At first glance, this book looks like an effort by UFO enthusiasts to convince the rest of us. It's actually somewhat better than that. In their short chapters, Hough and Randles use a mixture of interviews and brief histories to provide some insights into how different people see possible contact with extraterrestrials. They include a wide variety of perspectives, from sober astronomers to Agent Mulder types. They offer a sampling rather than comprehensive coverage. While these British authors are enthusiastic about their subject, they check out the believability of some reports about contact and describe some hoaxes. People who are new to this field may find this book a painless introduction. Those who already have done a lot of reading about SETI and UFO's should look elsewhere. The black and white illustrations are not very well reproduced.
