UFOs for the 21st Century Mind: The Definitive Guide to the UFO Mystery: New and Expanded Edition

In this revised and expanded edition of Richard Dolan's pervious classic of the UFO subject, he adds sixty new pages to bring the reader through the tumultuous journey of the UFO/UAP subject through the early 2020s. This includes a detailed treatment of the changes to our public discussion of UFOs since 2017 and what is the likely end point of this new direction. But Dolan provides much more than this, including providing critical context of the UFO subject within the broader social, political, and technological developments of our world, something that makes him unique among UFO researchers. Moreover, he never shies away from incorporating a “big picture” analysis to the phenomenon, asking difficult but important questions such as:
- How can we assess the likely intentions of the beings behind the phenomenon?
- What is the relationship if any between the UFO phenomenon and the current global revolution underway?
- What is the likely end game to UFO visitation as well as the government policies of secrecy?
- Can humanity achieve a genuine and truthful UFO “disclosure”?

Through it all, Dolan applies meticulous care in assembling facts, organizing relevant ideas and concepts, and presenting the rich history of UFOs as only he can do. For a book that was already a classic of UFO literature, Richard Dolan has given us an up-to-date version of what remains the greatest mystery of our time, covering the subject for beginners and experienced researchers alike. He offers fresh insights on everything connected to UFOs: ancient aliens, modern encounters, abductions, channelers, the politics and cover-up, the black budget world, the bizarre science, the social dimensions, the future, and much more. UFOs for the 21st Century Mind is a roadmap pointing the way forward in a field filled with uncertainty and obfuscation. In so doing, it is set to reposition an ancient phenomenon into a contemporary state of mind, reminding you just why the greatest mystery of our time is also one of the most important.
