Representing the fields of astronomy, >>physics, meteorology, psychiatry, psychology, and sociology, >>these renowned experts reflected the entire range of responsible >>opinion on the subject of unidentified flying objects. Exploring >>widely divergent views and applying them to the traditional >>scientific method, they presented photographs and detailed >>descriptions of sightings and subjected eyewitness reports and >>physical evidence to intense scrutiny. This book collects the >>papers presented at the symposium, several of them substantially >>revised. While the book takes no stand on the issue of UFO >>reality, it shows that there are still many unanswered questions >>regarding the physics and psychology of the phenomenon." >>A real bargain at $6.98. >>Ed Stewart >Those of you in Canada.
