Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind: Alien Abduction, UFOs, and the Conference at M.I.T.

This book added to my suspician of a government cover up, opened the pandoras box to Alien abduction, government cover-up, military technology, Similarities between everyone abductee. Theories on all of this and more kept me reading this book cover to cover. Skeptics that want to remain skeptical should not read this book. If you have a closed mind but dont want it to be pried open do not read this book. However anyone else should definitely pick up a copy. Every question I had became answered and questions I never asked were asked and answered. It blows your mind at what could be and what is going on out there. With the help of this book I have come to believe that the government is hostile toward whatever it is that IS out there. We had no part in deciding their welcome, who knows what is to come.

If this book is fiction, it stands up all the way. If not its a bonus, but a pretty scary one if we`re under that much control. What do I think? I underwent a total paradigm shift every time I opened the book so perhaps the question is unfair.

This book sits in my bookcase as one of my all-time favorites. I've now read it three times, and find it fascinating and mesmerizing each time. And some parts of it really freak me out. I'm not a UFO-guru, but this book asks the one burning question: "If we are NOT being visited, then what exactly IS going on? Why are people in remote locations of the world, with no desire to achieve fame, reporting the same bizarre experiences?". This book tries to address that. Educational, yet entertaining. And it does so in an intelligent, well-presented manner which doesn't come across as pushy or hokey. Highly recommended! Good luck trying to sleep after reading this one.

Back in the days when I was on my alien kick this was one of the most convincing pieces of evidence. Several professionals met at MIT to seriously discuss the abduction phenomena. I found their objectiveness with the evidence refreshing. Many worked together to get "at the bottom" of this intriguing issue. I would highly recommend the excellent book: Gods of Eden by William Bramely.

Read how a reporter changed his mind on the subject of abductions just by the fact that he opened his mind. The book gives a thorough summary of the MIT conference and after that gives accounts of people involved with the abductions. Bryan gave a very realistic, fascinating and terrifying view of what has been happening to thousands...
