Editorial Review Product Description Whether interplanetary tourists, interlopers from a parallel universe, or mere misfirings in the brain, UFOs and "aliens" permeate popular culture. They've made the covers of Time, Life, and the New York Times Book Review; garnered CNN coverage; turned up on Larry King Live and other high-profile talk shows; attracted large audiences for films and television series; and swamped the Internet with thousands of websites and discussion groups. Despite this pervasive presence, few scholars have been willing to study the perplexing phenomena behind these cultural signifiers. Wary of a field that seems tainted by suspect methods and outlandish theories, many have logically stayed away. The relative lack of academic participation, however, creates a vicious circle that prevents the development of standards that would attract greater academic participation and, thus, credibility and funding for the field. Meanwhile, the phenomenon, rather than fading from public awareness, continues to grow and evolve. In response, this volume provides a kind of primer for scholars, skeptics, and others uneasy about investigating this field. Its authors examine the nature of UFO "evidence"; discuss the methodological debates; incorporate research from science, history, mythology, and psychology; and highlight the reactions of the government and military from the Cold War to the present. It also brings together for the first time in one book three bestselling authors--Jacobs, Budd Hopkins, and Pulitzer Prize winner John Mack--widely known for their writings on the highly controversial "alien abduction" phenomenon.

Very good information summary from various investigators.
Good Overview of Ufology
Very good compilation on a complex and complicated subject I would recommend this book only to open-minded readers who have a rather dispassionate interest in the topic. I say this because as one of the chapters I discuss below depicts so well, most people are more concerned with the myth of UFO's rather than the real evidence. I also want to say that the Kirkus review at the top of this page is only too typical of those who want evidence when such "evidence" would never satisfy their preconceived version of reality. Prof. Jacob's compilation to me presents more than enough proof that this issue is real and needs to be seriously addressed by mainstream disciplines. I will discuss four of the best chapters in "UFO's AndAbductions." One chapter in what to me was a rather ironic argument style shows how among science, law, and military intelligence, science is the *least* qualified to investigate UFO's because the data does not fit into any scientific model, and scientists cannot operate w/o such. Because war and defense necessitate avoidingpreconceptions and simply examining the facts dispassionately,military intelligence is best qualified in the author's opinion.In my opinion the author did not go far enough, as I find the evidence that the military got technology from the ET's and gave it to industry very believable (Col. Corso's "The Day AfterRoswell", also "The Montauk Project" books). Budd Hopkins' contribution is a thorough rebuttal to the skeptics' strongly biased attempts to dismiss all abduction accounts as phony. The most salient point he brings out is that many abductees have very clear memories w/o undergoing any hypnosis. He also gives plenty of evidence that hypnosis of abductees does not produce the kind of false memories claimed by debunkers, such as the false memories "remembered" by "victims" of parental abuse. Psychiatrist John Mack insightfully probes how the abduction phenomenon expands our concepts of reality, particularly the merging of the spirit and material worlds, which are kept separate by the current materialistic worldview. Dr. Mack also feels that the transformations that occur in the lives of abductees are genuine and significant. Of course Dr. Mack is very familiar from personal experience with how the mainstream disciplines react when a researcher attempts to provide evidence that threatens the current belief systems! The longest and to me the best chapter in this book is called "Lost In The Myths," which is for the most part a brilliant discussion of first the many values of myths, and then how relevant it is to view the UFO phenomenon from the standpoint of these myths. For example, as we know from Joseph Campbell, story myths can be used to resolve some of the bizarre contradictions in life, so that the resolution is assimilated into the unconscious. UFO's in this context unite technology with magic, advanced science with angelic archetypes who will save a world on the brink of apocalypse (it always is, isn't it?!). The author also compares the transformations experienced by UFO abductees with those who have undergone shamanic initiations. Finally, the author rightly calls on science and the public to separate the myths of UFO's from their actuality, to study the evidence w/o the biases. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Before he was forced to enter the mental institution, the professor had talked to a UFO researcher in Mexico, Ms. Zitha Rodriguez, and she had written down what he said in shorthand.Unfortunately, when she came to transcribe her notes, she did not understand the scientific words and so was unable to re-create exactly what the professor had told her.Nevertheless, she published what she had.Then Wendelle Stevens transliterated the Spanish of Ms. Rodriguez’s book into English and published it in his UFO Contact series to make the information available to the public. Now, speaking through superchannel Robert Shapiro, the Andromedans who contacted the professor tell us what really happened.They give instructions for the shielding technology so that scientists who have the background can use it.They also clear up all the questions one would have after reading the Spanish or English book and supply a lively account of their lives and other adventures they had when they came to Earth.Each crew member of the spaceship speaks: Leia, the scientific liason, the two scientists—and then, as an extra treat, Leia's daughter and her playmate contribute to the story.

Editorial Review Product Description In 1982, a movie producer received an anonymous roll of film containing a series of alleged thirty-year-old government documents relating to the U.S. government's top-secret "Majestic Twelve" project. The "MJ-12" papers contained shocking revelations about the existence of UFOs, including a briefing paper prepared in November 1952 for then-President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower detailing the crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft near Roswell, New Mexico. After decades of speculation, investigation, and innuendo, evidence now suggests that the MJ-12 papers were no more than an elaborate hoax ... or were they? One of the world's most respected ufologists, Kevin D. Randle, Ph.D. set out to discover the truth behind the most remarkable controversy of the twentieth century. The secrets his in-depth investigation revealed will shock and astonish you, and perhaps change everything you have ever believed about the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Customer Reviews (4)
Case MJ-12 is a practical and logical analysis of the issue. A good read.
ugh
Take a dive in Ufology's dirtiest mudd puddle Truthfully, I didn't read the entire book, I read the last chapter titled "Conclusions", and I skimmed through several other areas, but all I needed to hear was at the end. On the bright side, this is a fine book if you're interested in the subject, or looking for a good sober analysis on MJ-12. Don't let my review hold you back from getting the book. Well, of course it ain't over yet, I hear Stanton Friedman is gonna sell his 16? page review on this book. Time to muddy the water, again... it's money thrown down a bottomless pit. We probably haven't heard the last on MJ-12.
Beyond Roswell ... Or Just Out Of Grasp? That said, CASE MJ-12 is an admirable attempt to explore the possible origins to literally thousands of pages of supposedly "declassified" evidence linking Roswell and other UFO events to an elite oversight committee long referred to as "Majestic 12" (or "Majik 12" or "Magic 12" or just "Magic," depending upon whose opinion you accept).Despite having only seen a "representative sampling" (Randle's term, not mine), he feels compelled and competent to pass judgment over an entire body of paperwork he hasn't examined, and this investigative leap undermines much of his prose. The book reads as if written very quickly.In fact, there are several long passages that almost appear as 'cut and paste' work, interspersed throughout the tome; interestingly enough, this 'cut-and-paste' is Randle's prime argument against accepting any of the MJ-12 papers as "credible."After finishing the work, you'll really understand the man's appreciation of the word "provenance." Sadly, Randle stumbles in the book's second half, venturing easily into territory all-too-familiar these days in the endeavors of Ufology; he spends a fair portion of text 'bashing' others in the field for their failure to reach the same conclusions he has.As he's concluded a handful of the MJ papers are fradulent, he believes everyone should.In this respect, his arguments are weak ... especially given the fact that the foundation of his assertion is predicated on the outcome of a 'word game' played with a retired military officer (Kaufman) who, admittedly, can neither confirm nor deny the said committee's existence. Still, CASE MJ-12 is entertaining in its first half, when Randle is dealing with those MJ 12 papers he has reviewed, and this is definitely worth reading.In the latter half, he delves (or tries to) into the psychology associated to MJ-12, if such a secret committee existed, and what the political and/or social ramifications would've been.For those familiar with the events of Roswell, CASE MJ-12 makes for adequate reading.Randle's insistence on spending time recounting (and recounting and recounting!) the Roswell events sadly grounds the prose; instead, he could've engaged readers with his own speculative theories associated to UFO crash retrievals. For reasons beyond logic, Randle also feels compelled to tack on an extra chapter -- an appendix dealing solely with a con man's hoax associated to a UFO crash in Africa.Perhaps Randle believed that, by presenting events so obviously fabricated, the thinner of his arguments would be strengthened, but that isn't the way truly inquiring minds really think. ...
