Aliens and their craft are a study in self-contradiction: UFOs lit up like Christmas trees conduct secret missions; supposedly solid craft merge like water droplets in mid air; form-changing beings profess love while subjecting victims to unwarranted physical and psychological torture; hypnotized abductees, whose memories were supposedly erased, manage to deliver extensive, pointed messages that are obviously meant to be heard.Is this superior science? Wisdom beyond our understanding? Or are aliens not what they pretend to be? Alien Encounters takes a close and sobering look at the increasing sightings of apparent alien space ships, reports of contacts between little gray men and humans, and abductions of humans by technologically superior alien creatures in UFOs.This book explains ancient concepts of extra-terrestrial life including the returning earthling, subterranean civilization and other theories about alien origins; ancient and modern crash-and-recover reports; and alien connections to Old-World myths and fairy tales. It also explores claims of government coverups; mysterious reports of men in black associated with UFO sightings; evolving UFO craft designs through the years; frightening New Age religious connections; and human go-betweens. Accounts of numerous recently-recorded encounters between aliens and humans worldwide, including abduction and missing-time reports, add to this book's wealth of information on these puzzling phenomena.Alien Encounters is a refreshing look at the deceptive menace of alien visitations. It places events and all previous research in a new perspective, showing that researchers on both sides will continue to be deceived until they consider the fact that this phenomenon is both non-human and a hoax. Out of all the confusion about aliens and UFOs, the stellar brethren have achieved their goal: a rising generation of believers. This book is a much needed reality-check, offering the most compelling explanations yet. Less
