Explanation of Ratings
Credibility = Low: In general, this catagory is a rating of the author's intellectual discipline and the strength of his argument (which are low), not the veracity of his claims (which could be true in spite of the weak argument).

David Jacobs thinks he knows the alien agenda, and it ain't friendly. The visitors are breeding alien-human hybrids and aim to take over our planet.... and there's nothing we can do about it! Jacobs represents the pessimistic end of the abduction research spectrum. The trouble is, he is working from the same thin evidence as everyone else: abductee testimony retrieved through hypnosis. As a professor of history, not psychology, Jacobs doesn't bring us any closer to proving that these supposed memories are real. Jacobs mentions the opposing theories, such as false memory syndrome, but doesn't effectively address them. Most of the witnesses are anonymous, of course, so there isn't much that the rest of us can do to investigate. All of this makes us wonder: If the situation is inevitable, unprovable and hopeless, why worry? Why can't Jacobs just be happy? -- Glenn Campbell

Reservations

This book doesn't differ much from other abduction books except in its pessimistic appraisal and punchy literary style. However, it is probably the easiest abduction book to read, since it doesn't dwell too long on any one witness.

Comparison to Other Books

This is probably the best book for conveying the "gloom & doom" school of abduction research. For a more neutral approach, see Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind.

 Information from the Publisher Always supportive 

From the Book Cover

"In my most recent research, I have uncovered information that allows UFO researchers to solve the UFO mystery -- at least the questions that will have the greatest impact upon us. I have put many pieces of the puzzle together. I have focussed the picture, and I do not like what I see. For the first time in over thirty years of researching the UFO phenomenon, I am frightened of it. Understanding... has lead to a profound apprehension for the future. The abduction phenomenon is far more ominous than I had thought... I know why the aliens are here -- and what the human consequences will be if their mission is successful."

-- Professor David M. Jacobs
