Explanation of Ratings
Credibility = Very Low: In general, this catagory is a rating of the author's intellectual discipline and the strength of his argument (which are very low), not the veracity of his claims (which could be true in spite of the weak argument).
Silliness = Very High: High silliness isn't necessarily a bad thing. Such items often make amusing gifts or may be interesting as cultural artifacts.
Bargain = Low: In general, items with a low bargain rating are not considered worth the retail price as judged by the useful research data they contain. However, they may have cultural or entertainment value, which is not included in the bargain rating.

(Also available in paperback.) This book is a thin gruel of warmed over UFO conspiracy theories with little to sink your teeth onto. Corso claims to have a been a broker for alien technology while working for the military, playing a key role in nearly every late Twentieth Century technological development by transferring discoveries from the Roswell crash to the private sector. Corso recounts the standard UFO cover-up claims with nothing new added: MJ-12 exists just as Stanton Friedman would have it. The aliens gave us lasers, fiber optics, transistors and integrated circuits. Much of the story is told in the form of a novel, which is frustrating, since we would rather have more concrete details of what Corso supposedly did and saw. There are no footnotes and very few specific document references, so the book is nearly useless as a reference tool. Coming from an average conspiracy buff, this book would not be worth the paper it is printed on, but Corso has real government credentials, and the book certainly made a splash when it came out. We sell it mainly as a social document. -- Glenn Campbell

Reservations

Corso provides no evidence for his claims, which ought to be easy to investigate.

Some excerpts from The Day After Roswell:

Foreword by Senator Strom Thurmond

Introduction

From the Book Cover

A landmark expose firmly grounded in fact, THE DAY AFTER ROSWELL puts a fifty-year-old controversy to rest. Since 1947, the mysterious crash of an unidentified aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, has fueled a firestorm of speculation and controversy with no conclusive evidence of its extraterrestrial origin--until now. Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.), a member of President Eisenhower's National Security Council and former head of the Foreign Technology Desk at the U.S. Army's Research & Development department, has come forward to tell the whole explosive story. Backed by documents newly declassified through the Freedom of Information Act, Colonel Corso reveals for the first time his personal stewardship of alien artifacts from the crash, and discloses the U.S. government's astonishing role in the Roswell incident: what was found, the cover-up, and how these alien artifacts changed the course of twentieth- century history.

In 1961 Corso, then a lieutenant colonel, was given command of one of the Pentagon's highly classified weapons development budgets and was made privy to the U.S. government's greatest secret: the dismantling and appropriation of the Roswell extraterrestrial spacecraft by the Army. Now, identifying all those involved, Colonel Corso reveals how a deep-cover council officially discounted all UFO reports to the American public, and cleared the path for his R&D team at the Pentagon to analyze and integrate the Roswell artifacts into the military arsenal and the private business sector. The extent of the operation is startling.

With unprecedented detail, Corso divulges how he spearheaded the Army's reverse-engineering project that "seeded" alien technology at American companies such as IBM, Hughes Aircraft, Bell Labs, and Dow Coming-without their knowledge. He describes the devices found aboard the Roswell craft, and how they were the precursors for today's integrated circuit chips, fiber optics, losers, and super-tenacity fibers. He also discusses the role alien technology played in shaping geopolitical policy and events: how it helped the United States surpass the Russians in space; spurred elaborate Army initiatives such as SDI, Horizon and HARP; and ultimately brought about the end of the Cold War.

Laying bare some of the government's most closely guarded secrets, THE DAY AFTER ROSWELL not only forces us to reconsider the past--but also our role in the universe.

About the Author

COLONEL PHILIP CORSO, USA, (Ret.) was a key Army intelligence officer who served on General MacArthur's staff in Korea, and later on President Dwight D. Eisenhower's National Security Council as a Lt. Colonel. During his twenty-one-year military career, he was honored with nineteen medals, decorations and ribbons for meritorious service. He retired from the Army in 1963, and went on to serve Senators James Eastland and Strom Thurmond as a staff member specializing in national security. Since then, he has worked for various private-sector business entities as a consultant and contracts administrator. Most recently, he has appeared on Prime Time Live as an expert commentator on Cold War U2 flights over Russia, and has testified before the House National Security Committee about American POWs held in North Korea.

WILLIAM J. BIRNES, Ph.D., has coauthored numerous books including The Riverman, Signature Killers, and Operation Green Ice, and was the editor in chief of The McGraw-Hill Personal Computer Programming Encyclopedia.
