I haven't been a regular follower of the UFO/UAP genre, but this work held my attention. I do find the subject interesting, just not something I've followed closely. I do think the author's objective approach in addressing the "threat" is appropriate. There are those who will claim the "friends from out of town" are but beneficent observers - and some may indeed be - but it would be naive to assume all are. Curious to see how this plays out. I think the evidence is sufficient to demonstrate it's reality, at this point. There needs to be an effort to figure out the "why," in addition to the specific "who."

This book is a tremendously good primer for Mr. Hughes' "Ellipsis Manual," and should be required reading for any profession in which interpersonal communication is a core competency. Getting at the truth has always been a challenge; and understanding behaviors we observe in others is critical to achievement of that goal. Mr. Hughes does a phenomenal job presenting the material in a way that is understandable for readers in the earlier years of their professions; and offers excellent refinements for those who are further along in their careers. I do intend to order either the Kindle version or hardcopy to keep as reference material.

Excellent argumentation of reality as we know or believe it to be. Was a bit surprised at the seemingly political bent at the end - I suppose it's a sign of the times that everything must necessarily boil down to where one is on the social and political strata. I think the discussion would have been equally enjoyable without it; but I also don't dislike that it does trigger further introspection. As an animist, the latter chapters do cause me to consider how one reconciles spiritual belief/practice with "ownership" of that which surrounds us in the physical plane. Though I loathe politics, it's part of the scenario we find ourselves in; thus is fair game. Overall, I really enjoyed this work.

I really enjoyed Diana's work in this book and found it very insightful and thought-provoking. In fact, don't think I'll stop with this one. I also appreciated the fantastic narration!
