Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessions of an Alien is a story about alienation. The narrator, Josh Carew, is an alien in his homeland, Ireland. He is exiled by choice to various parts of the former British Empire, seeking to come to terms with the dilemmas in his life. On his return to Ireland, he describes his moral distress with a frankness and honesty that may shock his readers. He is disenchanted with politics and the galloping secularisation, which he views as the ruination of the country. Being of old Puritan stock, he asserts that only righteousness can uplift the nation. He cannot lie, nor can he accommodate to the mindset of the ungodly and materialistic people who rule the world. He is a pilgrim in an alien land and his confessions describe the dark night of his soul. His musings are a frontal assault on the Modern World and on the ghastly state that he refers to as the 'New Ireland'. Confessions of an Alien is partly a tale of adventure and partly a series of confessions. The story and the confessions are interwoven in a seamless narrative. The frank confessions focus on social, religious, and political issues. Josh sees himself as a moral man who knows the difference between right and wrong. He is shocked to find that the line between right and wrong has disappeared in the New Ireland. He sees a nation that has lost its values and he blames it on rampant greed, corruption, galloping secularism and neo-liberalism. Some readers may not like his rants and internal monologues. His views will probably offend secularists, politicians, churchmen, feminists, and media people. Josh could not care less. He speaks his mind with the forthrightness of an Old Testament prophet.
Download or read book Confessions of an Alien Hunter written by Seth Shostak and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aliens are big in America. Whether they’ve arrived via rocket, flying saucer, or plain old teleportation, they’ve been invading, infiltrating, or inspiring us for decades, and they’ve fascinated moviegoers and television watchers for more than fifty years. About half of us believe that aliens really exist, and millions are convinced they’ve visited Earth. For twenty-five years, SETI has been looking for the proof, and as the program’s senior astronomer, Seth Shostak explains in this engrossing book, it’s entirely possible that before long conclusive evidence will be found. His informative, entertaining report offers an insider’s view of what we might realistically expect to discover light-years away among the stars. Neither humanoids nor monsters, says Shostak; in fact, biological intelligence is probably just a precursor to machine beings, enormously advanced artificial sentients whose capabilities and accomplishments may have developed over billions of years and far exceed our own. As he explores what, if anything, they would tell us and what their existence would portend for humankind and the cosmos, he introduces a colorful cast of characters and provides a vivid, state-of-the-art account of the past, present, and future of our search for extraterrestrial intelligence.
Download or read book Intimate Alien written by David J. Halperin and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A voyage of exploration to the outer reaches of our inner lives. UFOs are a myth, says David J. Halperin—but myths are real. The power and fascination of the UFO has nothing to do with space travel or life on other planets. It's about us, our longings and terrors, and especially the greatest terror of all: the end of our existence. This is a book about UFOs that goes beyond believing in them or debunking them and to a fresh understanding of what they tell us about ourselves as individuals, as a culture, and as a species. In the 1960s, Halperin was a teenage UFOlogist, convinced that flying saucers were real and that it was his life's mission to solve their mystery. He would become a professor of religious studies, with traditions of heavenly journeys his specialty. With Intimate Alien, he looks back to explore what UFOs once meant to him as a boy growing up in a home haunted by death and what they still mean for millions, believers and deniers alike. From the prehistoric Balkans to the deserts of New Mexico, from the biblical visions of Ezekiel to modern abduction encounters, Intimate Alien traces the hidden story of the UFO. It's a human story from beginning to end, no less mysterious and fantastic for its earthliness. A collective cultural dream, UFOs transport us to the outer limits of that most alien yet intimate frontier, our own inner space.

Download or read book Confessions of an Alien written by E. T. Marshall and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-02 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of course the title of this series is Mythology for the Third Millennium, but what is mythology? Mythology is a narrative that usually contains hidden meanings and deals with questions such as: where do we come from, what is our purpose and what is our place in the universe? Noted psychologist Carl Jung believed that our societys mythology was a reflection of its goals, fears and dreams. This work has many references to film because film reflects our societys myths and as such, is an example of a simulation of reality that the audience accepts for ninety minutes in place of its own. Indian mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik thinks that unlike fantasy that is nobodys truth, and history that seeks to be everybodys truth, mythology is somebodys truth. In this case, that somebodys truth is mine. As a philosopher, I have asked those questions, studied the great cultural and religious mythologies, and have mourned that those differing mythologies have caused harm. I challenge no existing mythology. For decades I have been an active practitioner of lucid dreaming and have been given a vision of a new mythology in that dream state. Because this is a mythology, it is meant to be believed, at least during the reading. I encourage you to read this work with a full suspension of disbelief. I have purposefully made this work a short read. I hope you may find it so, and even come back for a slower second look. It is my hope that as a bell rings when struck, some of the chapters will resonate with you.

Book excerpt: Aliens took me from my life as a high society princess. My body is my only bargaining chip, and my pleasure their currency. When I sat on the rooftop and wished every night that someone would take me away, this isn't what I meant. Now my biggest problems--my stepmom, my dad's expectations--are dwarfed in comparison to my new life. An alien with tentacles and a tail wants to make me his wife. Not just his wife--his queen. And if I give in to my body's desires, I would also be giving up everything I've ever fought for. But he's not the only one that wants me. There are his two bodyguards, both with broad shoulders, big muscles, and blazing eyes. They share everything, and I don't know if that includes me. There's the ship's pilot, a human cyborg with skilled hands and a heart of gold. And of course, there's the assassin chasing us across the galaxy, who seems to be everywhere at once. These men will kill me. Or they will drive me mad with pleasure. Until Earth seems just as alien as they are--and I have to decide where home actually is. CELESTIAL SINS is a science fantasy romance with a group of hot alien heroes and a strong heroine. Fans of Angel Lawson and Ruby Dixon will love this journey to another galaxy.
Download or read book We Are Not Alone written by Dirk Schulze-Makuch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life on Mars exists but we are too timid to accept the facts Life on Mars exists but are we brave enough to accept the facts? Extraterrestrial life exists and there’s evidence to prove it The question ‘are we alone?’ has haunted the human race for centuries. In this compelling and controversial work, Dirk Schulze-Makuch and David Darling argue that we already know the answer: no. Abundant extraterrestrial life is astrobiological fact and there is evidence to prove it. Far from existing light-years away in the outer reaches of space, it’s on our very doorstep. From methane oceans on Titan to advanced organic molecules on Mars, Schulze-Makuch and Darling contend that microbial life is a near certainty both in the Solar System and beyond. Using the latest scientific data, including from the Phoenix probe, which landed on Mars in 2008, We Are Not Alone stands to truly revolutionize our perception of our place in the universe.

Download or read book UFOs and Nukes written by Robert L. Hastings and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SECOND EDITION-REVISED AND UPDATEDThe reality of UFO incursions at American nuclear weapons facilities has been convincingly established. Hundreds of U.S. military veterans now openly discuss these ominous incidents and thousands of declassified government documents substantiate their revelations.Over the past four decades, renowned researcher Robert Hastings has interviewed more than 150 of those veterans regarding their involvement in these astounding cases. On September 27, 2010, CNN live-streamed his UFOs and Nukes press conference in Washington D.C. during which former U.S. Air Force officers described numerous nuclear missiles mysteriously malfunctioning moments after a disc-shaped craft was observed hovering near their underground launch silos.That shocking episode, in March 1967, was merely the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Documented UFO activity occurred at a plutonium processing plant in Washington State as early as January 1945, months prior to the atomic bombings in Japan. Another incident, in October 2010, involved one missile base in Wyoming being unable to communicate with several of its missile launch control capsules just as a huge cigar-shaped craft slowly flew over them.Significantly, documents smuggled out of Russia in the 1990s confirm that Soviet nukes were also the focus of UFO interest during the Cold War era. On one occasion, in October 1982, a number of missiles temporarily activated for launch, as terrified officers attempted to disrupt the unauthorized count-down. After 15 seconds, the anomaly terminated and the equipment returned to standby status. While this was taking place, an enormous disc silently hovered over the base.In short, the evidence presented in UFOs & Nukes makes clear that humans' deadliest weapons have been, since their development and use during World War II, under intense scrutiny by still-unidentified observers possessing tremendously advanced technology.Given these disclosures, it seems evident that the UFO-Nukes Connection is highly significant and perhaps even the key reason these mysterious aerial craft have appeared in our skies over the past seven decades.

Download or read book Confessions of a Sociopath written by M.E. Thomas and published by Crown. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The memoir of a high-functioning, law-abiding (well, mostly) sociopath and a roadmap—right from the source—for dealing with the sociopath in your life. “[A] gripping and important book . . . revelatory . . . quite the memorable roller coaster ride.”—The New York Times Book Review As M.E. Thomas says of her fellow sociopaths, “We are your neighbors, your coworkers, and quite possibly the people closest to you: lovers, family, friends. Our risk-seeking behavior and general fearlessness are thrilling, our glibness and charm alluring. Our often quick wit and outside-the-box thinking make us appear intelligent—even brilliant. We climb the corporate ladder faster than the rest, and appear to have limitless self-confidence. Who are we? We are highly successful, noncriminal sociopaths and we comprise 4 percent of the American population.” Confessions of a Sociopath—part confessional memoir, part primer for the curious—takes readers on a journey into the mind of a sociopath, revealing what makes them tick while debunking myths about sociopathy and offering a road map for dealing with the sociopaths in your life. M. E. Thomas draws from her own experiences as a diagnosed sociopath; her popular blog, Sociopathworld; and scientific literature to unveil for the very first time these men and women who are “hiding in plain sight.”
