Customer Reviews

Are You a Believer

I was very pleased with the book "Confirmation". I have seen! I am not an abductee, but I have seen. It is not my imagination. I felt he made the evidence very real and believible. I think the book was very informative, and though he wasn't discribing his own experiences, dosen't make them unbelievable. There are many who have been in those shoes. I am glad he wrote about other experiences. I am believer, I have seen and know it is all possible, and it could happen to anyone. I thought the book was an excellent accounting of things that could happen to any one of us. I was also unable to put it down once I started reading it. I hope their are more like it! Keep them coming.

Good but needed better pictures.

I enjoyed the book very much but the pictured that were in there were of very poor quality and subject matter. c'mon with the point that your trying to make you should at least use the best quality pictures possible.Thats my only complaint other than that the book was great.

Excellent, well documented work

It seems that the wait is over, and that some physical evidence is finally coming to the surface. The scientific community would do well to read this book or they'll fail to realize what's going on all around us.

Whitley hits the mark

Some reviews on this page miss the point: Whitley has always only told us what HIS understanding of things are. He is not trying to tell you The Absolute Truth. In this excellent book, he soberly describes some well-documented events, each of which would be a "smoking gun" if only the public knew of their occurrence. Each case is presented in a non-sensationalist manner, logically and clearly. He describes any debate surrounding the anomalous event fairly. And best of all, he is reluctant to jump to conclusions. I think Whitley would the first person to admit he was wrong in the past, or is wrong right now.This book can be read by "believers" (whatever that means) or scientists or even the uninitiated layperson. The facts of the case are presented, with a minimum of speculation, and with no concrete conclusion drawn in stone. The book achieves its only purpose: to publicize some extraordinary events that have happened and are happening right now. What is their implication? Whitley eventually spends a few pages on his personal ideas, but concludes that NO ONE knows yet. It is up to all of us to reach that conclusion together.

His best yet

Whitley Streiber is always an eloquent writer. He succeeds at illuminating a strange and disturbing reality that deserves scrutiny from the very people who shun this kind of stuff - mainstream scientists. It's too easy to write it all off to fantasy, delusion, mental illness and the other adjectives that are invariably used with the UFO phenonmenon. Streiber is one of those pioneers (like Sheldrake, Robert Monroe, Jane Roberts, Michael Talbot, David Bohm, John Bell etc.) who ventures into places the rest of us don't want to go; who, after all, wants little greys running their bedrooms at night? But we go to these place vicariously because, in the end, we sense that the pioneers are onto something. And that alone makes Confirmation, like its predecessors, a must read. Trish MacGregor
