Description

Over two decades ago, eminent scientist Vallee wrote a provocative book about alleged UFO landings, folklore, and certain unexplained phenomena. That long-out-of-print book--which discussed the most interesting reports of more than 1,000 apparently reliable witnessess--has become an underground classic and is now being reissued.

"To a certain extent, this is a shocking book,
and it should be."
--from the Preface

French ufologist Jacques Vallee's 1969 book did shock a lot of people.
UFO believers were already familiar with Vallee. As one of the few scientists who had written detailed and careful analyses of UFO sightings that indicated that the witnesses were neither mistaken nor lying, he was seen as a valuable asset for their position. They looked forward to more of the same in his latest book.

What they got was something quite different. As Vallee himself said in the preface, Passport to Magonia was not a scientific book. In reading older books, Vallee had noticed a curious correspondence between stories that were hundreds of years old and those he was investigating in the late 1960s.

Absolutely fantastic book which would open anyone's eyes to the mountain of pertinent and unanswered questions in Ufology. Should be read with Valees "Messengers of Deception" for best effect.

Vallee's work is well researched and his ideas on how contact affects people are very valid, thought provoking and accurate. In the movie "Close encounters" the french researcher was loosely based on him according to a certain 'hollywood' insider. Another researcher has said he feels Vallee has never really considered that some UFO are actually man made machines, I hope to find out what his stance on this issue is. I only recently began to give serious consideration to that theory after reading a lot of material asserting that this is the truth. lets be reasonable on this issue of UFO and Alien contact and consider both sides, believers, critics and those who study the reports and reporters. I personally have seen skeptics who observed UFO phenomena and their reactions were priceless and perhaps an insight into their personal psychology...

I wish the skeptics would stay in their flat earth society and not impede people who are not closed minded robots.

Thanks for uploading this classical book from Jacques Vallee. This book is the most profound analysis on UFO enigma. Every person who wants to have an over the edge point of view of this enigma should read this book. Period. Excellent, Asriq. Keep going.
