It's really a primer-history of the UFO situation since WWII. Yes, an organizing framework is each successive US president, but it's more of an overview of the field & major sightings. Very measured, lots of doubt and 'well, probably not' - as you find in the UFO field as a whole. Skepticism and a lot of effort going into identifying the thousands and thousands of fakes. I thought it was a great, book and it was perfect for me because I just want an overview of the field. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
"The UFO enigma has been part of our culture since the 1940s and building to a worldwide explosion of acceptance today. Now, as governments around the world open their files and records on internal UFO investigations, the US remains steadfast in its denial of interest in the UFO issue. As more of the world's population accepts the possibility of an extraterrestrial presence, the demand is building for disclosure from the United States. Using newly declassified and Freedom of Information Act documents, eyewitness accounts, interviews, and leaked documents being authenticated, THE PRESIDENTS AND UFOS details the secret history of UFOs and the corresponding presidential administration. Starting in 1941 with the Roosevelt administration, author Larry Holcombe examines the startling discoveries facing a president preoccupied by WWII, the explosion of UFO sightings during the Truman years, first contact during the Eisenhower administration, and the possibility of a UFO connection to the Kennedy assassination. In 1975, the Nixon administration came very close to admitting that UFOs exist by funding a documentary by Robert Emenegger. Almost 40 years later, this book will examine Emenegger's findings. For the first time, the involvement of all of the modern presidents up to and including President Obama, and the rise and then fall of their influence on UFO issues, are told in one story that is an integral part of the fascinating UFO tapestry"-- Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

Be that as it may, the speculations of the author matter most and do indeed make quite a lot of sense. When he, for example, hazards a guess on why extraterrestrials despite all their advanced technology purportedly crash their advanced spacecrafts, and adding insult to injury leave their dead behind, his answer seems quite reasonable. Obviously, the crashed crafts are expendable probes controlled by engineered, cloned - you have it - artificial life-forms.
The author also mentions how he continuously has to endure the mockery of academia.
The writer, and perhaps anybody, that calls him/herself an Ufologist often experiences more than a fair share of unnecessarily acidulous ridicule, usually from 👩🔬 👨🔬 scientists for what they perceive as substandard scientific methods applied by most UFO researchers. Well, for such scientist I do have a question - Does the proper scientific method ought to include ridicule, then? ( )
