Summary

Is alien abduction real, or are the answers to its legacy buried in the human psyche? Do we now have the knowledge to understand the forces behind abduction, or are we still stumbling in the dark? These authors have been breaking new ground in the study of UFOs for the past twenty five years. Between them, they have expertise in military aviation, a doctorate in psychology, and a first-hand alien contact. The pieces of the puzzle are finally falling into place. And the full picture is much more complex and incredible than anyone suspected.
