Are we alone in the universe? Many people are convinced that contact with extraterrestrial beings may have already happened and that, if not, contact with intelligent alien life-forms will almost certainly occur in the future.
Looking for the Aliens tries to provide a definitive answer to the question through the gathering of many viewpoints. Within its pages are the testimony of quantum physicists, UFO investigators, witnesses to sightings, and top writers of science fiction and fantasy literature. In their quest for answers, authors Peter Hough and Jenny Randles have been guided by the principle that nothing yet has been determined to be final – all dismissals and avowals are open to further scrutiny.
In searching for the 'aliens',the authors remind us that how and where we look, and what we presume to be looking for, can greatly influence our conclusions. To avoid the presuppositions that may distort our perspective, they discuss a variety of themes in ufology: the dream of contact, the belief in life on other planets, the methods of scientific search and analysis, and the evidence as it is now constituted. The book also includes dozens of photographs, some of which may confirm or confound the reader's convictions.
Like all honest investigations, Looking for the Aliens answers its initial question by asking others. If contact is coming, where will it come from? And what will be the human reaction - and the consequences if and when the aliens arrive?
