Reviews"At last, a serious and thoughtful book about this controversial subject. Skeptics and true believers will find a treasure trove of insightful and eye opening information. This book is bound to set the gold standard for UFO research." -Michio Kaku, Ph.D. Author ofPhysics of the Impossibleand host of Sci Fi Science on theScience Channel "I was astonished by the care and precision of Leslie Kean's research in this terrific book. Her analysis is carefully reasoned and to the po∫ her craftsmanship in organization and writing are superb. Her expose' raises important questions: Why does the US government create public distrust by neglecting this important topic? Why do its agencies avoid investigating cases of interference with flight operations and instead issue absurd cover-up stories? This book is ultimately an appeal to all scholars for an "extraordinary investigation of an extraordinary phenomenon." -Rudy Schild, Ph.D., Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics "Like me, Leslie Kean is an agnostic on the issue of UFOs. Her book is a fine piece of journalism - not about beliefs, but about facts. Kean presents the most accurate, most credible reports on UFO's you will ever find. She has fought long and hard to discover the facts and let the chips fall where they may. She may not have the final smoking gun, but I smell the gunpowder." -Miles O'Brien, former CNN space/science correspondent "I find explanations offered by UFO enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists to be implausible, but I also have little patience with "deniers" who ridicule credible reports. Leslie Kean has found a thoughtful path between extreme views, documenting the UFO mystery with intelligence and insight. She makes a strong case for U.S. participation in official, international UFO investigations and for public dissemination of the results. The fascinating first-hand accounts make this a thought-provoking book, even for those of us who don't know much about UFOs." -Neal Lane, Ph.D., Rice University; former Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy "If you don't know much about UFOs, you must read this book. If you think that UFO reports are nonsense, this book will disabuse you of that notion. Leslie Kean's UFOs informs readers at every level of knowledge and belief. It could, and should, become the "tipping point" that leads to public acceptance of the reality of UFOs and all of its implications." -Don Donderi, Ph.D., Department of Psychology, McGill University (Ret.) "In an area of study where there aren't many, this is a serious book. It is credible, clear, and compelling, without any farfetched jumps in logic and assumption. Its credibility begins on the first page with John Podesta and continues with case studies of extraordinary quality to the very end. Leslie Kean not only makes the case for, but calls for, a whole new concrete and realistic perspective on UFOs that has more honesty and integrity than any other that I have read. This is a book for anyone with an open mind." -John L. Petersen, Founder & President of The Arlington Institute "In these pages we are confronted head-on by the UFO phenomenon as revealed firsthand by highly credible government officials and military aviation experts. Their credibility and integrity cannot be qu

SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER . Impeccably researched, this riveting journalistic investigation separates fact from fiction, and documentsthe unexplained mysteries of-and government reactions to-actual UFOs. "A treasure trove of insightful and eye-opening information."-Michio Kaku, PH.D., bestselling author of Physics of the Future Leslie Kean, a veteran investigative reporter who has spent the past ten years studying the still-unexplained UFO phenomenon, reviewed hundreds of government documents, aviation reports, radar data, and case studies with corroborating physical evidence. She interviewed dozens of high-level officials and aviation witnesses from around the world. Among them, five Air Force generals and a host of high-level sources-including Fife Symington III, former governor of Arizona, and Nick Pope, former head of the British Defence Ministry's UFO Investigative Unit-have written their own breathtaking, firsthand accounts about UFO encounters and investigations exclusively for this book. With the support of former White House chief of staff John Podesta, Kean lifts the veil on decades of U.S. government misinformation about this mysterious phenomenon and presents irrefutable evidence that unknown flying objects-metallic, luminous, and seemingly able to maneuver in ways that defy the laws of physics-actually exist. With a Foreword by John Podesta "The most important book on the phenomenon in a generation." - Journal of Scientific Exploration "Written with penetrating depth and insight, the revelations in this book constitute a watershed event in lifting the taboo against rational discourse about this controversial subject." -Harold E. Puthoff, PH.D., Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin "Kean presents the most accurate, most credible reports on UFOs you will ever find. She may not have the final smoking gun, but I smell the gunpowder." -Miles O'Brien, science correspondent for PBS's NewsHour, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Impeccably researched, this riveting journalistic investigation separates fact from fiction, and documents the existence of--and government reactions to--actual UFOs.
