This review is from: Ufos and Abductions in Brazil (Paperback)
As one who usually reads more established scientific literature, I wanted something a bit "lighter" as I recovered from a knee operation. The ufo phenomenon has always interested me, and I haven't drawn any conclusions as to the validity of this subject. The author does an excellent job of cataloguing the testimonials of witnesses to these phenomena, and for this I admire her. The problem for me was mostly the layout of the book. The testimonials are strung together in a seemingly endless fashion, and the reading soon becomes tedious. There seems to be no organization, retrospection, or synthesis to the text. After reading this book, I feel I have no more understanding of the ufo phenomenon.
