From the Publisher
I first met Dr. Vallee while arranging his publicity tour for this second volume in his Alien Contact Trilogy. Even though I had seen "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and knew that he was Spielberg's chief technical advisor on the film as well as the real-life model for the scientist played by Francois Truffant, I wasn't sure what to expect. After all, many people in the UFO community are, shall we say, extremely zealous. I was very impressed by his thoughtful manner and clearheaded analyses. Dr. Vallee is widely recognized and honored as the premier investigating scientist and UFO researcher. In this book, he personally investigates forty UFO sightings. The reader accompanies him around the world as he travels to scientifically document reports of sightings, contact and (in some cases) abduction and death. Dr. Vallee presents a reasoned, balanced, eloquently written account of his research that supports his conclusion that UFOs are neither imaginary nor extraterrestrial. Rather, he argues, they represent an actual technology with hostile potential.
