520    $a "Cited by The New York Review of Books as "the best brief for visitation," this classic study presents an analysis of UFO reports and concludes that many sightings cannot be easily dismissed. The case against UFOs and UAPs has not been put to rest. Although UFOs "officially" did not exist for decades according to the government, reports of sightings continue to be made, and the latest releases from the government and related hearings have surprised the world. Although the scientific world has put UFOs out to pasture, the evidence used to dismiss them is extremely scanty and unscientific. Dr. Hynek, a scientist himself, and the only government-paid ufologist in history, looks at the decisions made by officialdom in the early days of ufology, and how these have held us back - to the point that we are still naively talking about UFOs as we were talking about them in the 1950s. Has seventy years of research made no difference at all in our understanding? Dr. Hynek proves that there is a conspiracy afoot to hide the facts and that there are many cases that still need to be explained by mainstream science - not dismissed with facile jokes and stupid logic. Citing specific cases, Hynek challenges those in the ivory tower by raising questions that have still not been answered and refuting mainstream arguments that have yet to be proven. In The UFO Experience, a scientist of impeccable qualifications takes on his colleagues"-- $c Provided by publisher.
