Chalker proves his point with a well documented book. This is well worth reading.

Important

I used to gobble up UFO books with both hands. The problem was that there was really too much literature out there and too much of it simply did not withstand the test of time. There was a lot off shoddy research and shoddy investigation. I suppose one shouldn't be surprized. It's a complex phenomenon and there are a lot of misleading avenues and dead ends. There is also a lot of evidence to support nearly any view you want to take concerning the subject. So...over the past number of years I've tried to limit my readings to books that seem to have a higher level of scholarship. And, as many of the earlier works were a bit of a shotgun blast, I attempted to read books that were a bit more narrowly focused, and to see where (if anywhere) research was heading. I'm not certain why I grabbed this book off the shelf. I'm not familiar with the author or his place in the UFO community. The subject did, however, have an interesting premise. Anyway...I bought, read it, and really liked it. This is an important piece of work to add to the pile of extant literature on the subject. It is the first time (that I know of) that DNA testing has been used to try and verify the objective reality of an alien contact/abduction. The case is interesting and the follow-up satisfies my sense of professionalism. Though this case might be merely the next "display" the alien intelligances are laying before us, it still constitutes physical, testable stuff to work with. Something we've had little of in the past. Also important was the author's reviving of the possible link between alien encounters and those encounters experienced by other cultures throughout the world and history. Particularly with stories originating in the British Isles. Other investigators such as Jerome Clarke have attemted this in the past, but there is a somewhat stronger case being made of it in this book. My only quibble with the book (and it's a minor one) is the outline. I'm not certain why Chalker arranged things as he did. There are hoax cases thrown in among the more verifiable portions for no reason I can determine other than his wanting to show his readership that he knows a false story when he sees one. Other than that it is a scholarly work that deserves its place as the next rung in a ladder leading to the possible solution to one of the most perplexing riddles of our time.
