“A Remarkable Series of Books”

In the Spring 2009 issue of the Journal of Scientific Exploration, Chris Rutkowski revisits Jacques Vallee’s “remarkable series of books: Dimensions, Confrontations, and Revelations” and finds the experience “fascinating.” Vallee’s “different slant on what may be going on” is “antithetical to popular belief about UFOs,” notes Rutkowski. “Presented in a logical, coherent sequence (and with thematically attractive new covers), Vallee makes his case for his position that the UFO phenomenon is not extraterrestrial but terrestrial in nature, and not simply physical, but psychosocial in character.” In the final paragraphs of his review, Rutkowski summarizes Vallee’s accomplishments in the Alien Contact Trilogy: “Vallee does several important things toward the advancement of ufology. First he provides data to show that the UFO phenomenon is real and has been part of human history for millennia. Second, he emphasizes that it is an absurd phenomenon that does not seem to be conformable to simple scientific categorization. Third, he shows that current approaches by both debunkers and believers fail to address the complex nature of the phenomenon and do a great disservice to its witnesses. Fourth, he suggests a methodology that may be more useful in understanding the phenomenon. And fifth, he theorizes that a clandestine organization, military or otherwise, is obscuring the nature of the phenomenon to its own end.”

We are proud to announce that we have reprinted Jacques Vallee’s “Alien Contact Trilogy”: Dimensions: A Casebook of Alien Contact; Confrontations: A Scientist’s Search for Alien Contact; and Revelations: Alien Contact and Human Deception. Though the books were first published more than a decade ago, Dr. Vallee views this trilogy as his ultimate statement on the phenomenon. If you read the books when they first appeared, we suggest you read them again to place what has happened since then in the proper perspective; if you have never read the books and have any interest at all in the UFO phenomenon, you owe it to yourself to read what many consider to be the most intelligently argued treatment of the mystery ever penned by a scientist. It’s probably fair to say that no scientist has put in as much time and thought on the UFO subject as Dr. Vallee. His works are chock full of field investigations, historical analyses, and bold but logical speculation. Dr. Vallee thinks different. Once you have read this trilogy, we are sure you will never think about UFOs in the same way again.
