- BOOK OF THE WEEK
Coming in May 2017 is a brand new anthology of critical thinking about the state of UFO research. I am proud to have been asked to contribute to this collection of essays from fourteen amazing researchers. The book is called
UFOs: Reframing the Debate and features a diverse array of independent thinkers on all things ufological. The brainchild of editor Robbie Graham (
Silver Screen Saucers: Sorting Fact from Fantasy in Hollywood’s UFO Movies), it arose out of the disillusionment he's felt with popular approaches to the phenomenon (
YouTube link). I'm very excited to see this book released as I am optimistic that it might actually help move UFO research forward.

See y'all next issue!
