Book Description
Pioneer investigator of UFO claims urges young readers to think before believing that aliens have landed. Young people love the mystery that accompanies believing in Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs). To children, the world of the unknown is often much more exciting than the world they know. Yet in their early search for the truth, it's important for young people to know that the vast majority of historical cases of UFOs have been scientifically explained and are not so mysterious after all. Bringing UFOs Down to Earth by Philip J. Klass, the "Sherlock Holmes of UFOlogy," is a fun book for youngsters, ages 9 and up, offering UFO facts every kid should know. In terms that are easy to understand, Klass explains how UFO reports are investigated and explained rationally, the role of the media, and how some people easily become confused by what they believe to be "extraterrestrial crafts." Filled with many humorous illustrations and cartoons, Bringing UFOs Down to Earth emphasizes a healthy skepticism, critical thinking, and independent problem-solving as the best defense against unfounded and extraordinary claims.

This is the true story of over thirty years of UFO and alien contact. I became involved because I was going to prove that UFOs did not exist.

UFOs and the aliens who are piloting them 2. Where the aliens come from 3. How long the aliens have been visiting Earth and why they are here 4.There are two factions of aliens here at this time 5. Why some of the aliens are abducting 6. The aliens take on our Bible, Jesus and The Creator of all 7. The coming earth changes and what it means 8.

Beyond UFOs
Author: Jeffrey Bennett
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400838487
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The quest for extraterrestrial life doesn't happen only in science fiction. This book describes the startling discoveries being made in the very real science of astrobiology, an intriguing new field that blends astronomy, biology, and geology to explore the possibility of life on other planets. Jeffrey Bennett takes readers beyond UFOs to discuss some of the tantalizing questions astrobiologists grapple with every day: What is life and how does it begin? What makes a planet or moon habitable? Is there life on Mars or elsewhere in the solar system? How can life be recognized on distant worlds? Is it likely to be microbial, more biologically complex--or even intelligent? What would such a discovery mean for life here on Earth? Come along on this scientific adventure and learn the astonishing implications of discoveries made in this field for the future of the human race. Bennett, who believes that "science is a way of helping people come to agreement," explains how the search for extraterrestrial life can help bridge the divide that sometimes exists between science and religion, defuse public rancor over the teaching of evolution, and quiet the debate over global warming. He likens humanity today to a troubled adolescent teetering on the edge between self-destruction and a future of virtually limitless possibilities. Beyond UFOs shows why the very quest to find alien life can help us to grow up as a species and chart a course for the stars. In a new afterword, Bennett shares the most recent developments in extrasolar research, and discusses how they might further our quest to find alien life.

Strange Dimensions
Author: Jack Hunter
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1326360108
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
It is from the paranormal's multifaceted nature that the title of this book takes its meaning. Throughout its pages we encounter, time and again, talk of a wide variety of dimensions, levels and layers, from social, cultural, psychological and physiological dimensions, to spiritual, mythic, narrative, symbolic and experiential dimensions, and onwards to other worlds, planes of existence and realms of consciousness. The paranormal is, by its very nature, multidimensional. ""Once again, Jack Hunter takes us down the proverbial rabbit hole, here with the grace, nuance and sheer intelligence of a gifted team of essayists, each working in her or his own way toward new theories of history, consciousness, spirit, the imagination, the parapsychological, and the psychedelic. Another clear sign that there is high hope in high strangeness, and that we are entering a new era of thinking about religion, about mind, about us."" -- Jeffrey J. Kripal, author of Authors of the Impossible: The Paranormal and the Sacred.

Light and Dark
Author: Trevor J. Hawkeswood
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1452508771
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Trevor J. Hawkeswood is a scientist who has experienced hundreds of paranormal events in his lifetime. In Light and Dark, he recounts some of these incredible interactions. He believes that reality occurs on two separate but interwoven planes of existence the Earth plane and the multiple levels of the spiritual planes, including the lower levels, from where the dark souls of humans who have died reach out to us. He has experienced more than one hundred sightings of the shadow people, or "black ghosts." He credits guardian angels with saving him from harm or certain death on a number of occasions. Hawkeswood also shares accounts of his numerous sightings of strange aerial phenomena he believes were caused by UFOs. He has personally experienced clairaudience voices from beyond and precognition, or the ability to see the future. His detailed account of a unique out-of-body experience (OOBE) challenges what is known about this remarkable ability. His OOBE was unlike anything that has ever been described by others who have experienced it and he shares it all in Light and Dark. But it hasn't all been safe or pleasant. At eighteen, he survived a terrifying encounter with a demon gargoyle who tried to steal his soul energy after paralysing him. A comprehensive handbook for the paranormal enthusiast, Hawkeswood's work also provides a glossary and reference list of English-language UFO books. In Light and Dark, he shares a lifetime of experiences, ideas, and theories about this fascinating field of study.
