The Believer: A Conversation with Whitley Strieber & Ralph Blumenthal - John E. Mack Institute

Whitley Strieber and the author of the new John Mack biography The Believer: Alien Encounters, Hard Science, and the Passion of John Mack discuss Mack's entry into abduction research, his persecution for that foray, and something of what his studies revealed to him about the topic and himself. Ralph Blumenthal claims that his work is the first full account of the Harvard investigation into its Pulitzer-prize-winning psychiatrist, and believes the woman who "hoaxed" Mack about her experiences may have been a legitimate "experiencer." Blumenthal also notes something "that might be the key" to Mack's whole character and his great interest in alien abductions. Rich Reynolds feels Grassroots UFOs: Case Reports from the Center for UFO Studies, published by Anomalist Books, is "one of the best presentments of the UFO phenomenon in print." Why? Read A 2005 Must-Have UFO Book, by Michael Swords. The work stems from the late and much-missed John P. Timmerman's collecting the accounts here presented from visitors to a 12-year CUFOS traveling photo exhibition. Nick Redfern touts a rather different tome in "Saucers, Spooks and Kooks" - A New UFO Book Reviewed. Nick summarizes that Saucers, Spooks, and Kooks: UFO Disinformation in the Age of Aquarius claims outside manipulation behind much "UFO history, lore and legend." (WM)
