Publisher Synopsis
[Pasulka] approaches UFO believers with an open mind in her irresistible debut . . . lively character sketches bring the story to life . . . Pasulka gives wonderful, entertaining insight into the curious study of UFOs. * Publishers Weekly * UFOs are a remarkable phenomenon that both believers and skeptics initially have a hard time connecting to religion.

Luhrmann, author of When God Talks Back * From a solid base of scholarship Dr. Pasulka introduces us to the players at the frontier of biological and physical research.

The result is a timely introduction to the revelations in our collective future. * Jacques F.
