About the Author

Steven M. Greer, MD, an emergency physician and Founder and International Director of CSETI (The Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence_ - widely regarded as the world's foremost authority on UFOs and Extraterrestrial Intelligence - has written the definitive account of the UFO/ET subject in this book: Extraterrestrial Contact

From the Back Cover

Featured in the book- - the best UFO/ET cases and the evidence for them - the best US and other official, government smoking gun documents related to UFOs - the remarkable Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind experiences of Dr.Greer and the CSETI research teams who have encountered and made contact with UFOs all over the world - a thought-provoking overview of why ETs are here, what are the implications of disclosing this knowledge to the world and how the world will change once the truth is known - an inside view of the famous CSETI Project Starlight briefings to President Clinton's first CIA Director, key members of Congress, the UN leadership and very senior Pentagon officials at the highest level of the military, among others.

Relying on first-hand knowledge from his CSETI research experiences and direct sources from covert projects, Dr. Greer brings a unique combination of scientific knowledge, credibility, vision, humor and inspiration to the subject. Arguably the most insightful book ever written on the subject of UFOs, ETs, and government secrecy.

On December 13, 1993, my wife and I flew to Washington, DC to meet with President Clinton's first CIA Director, James Woolsey. The cover story for this meeting was simply a small dinner party consisting of CIA Director Woolsey and his wife, Dr. Sue Woolsey (Chief Operating Officer of the National Academy of Sciences) and our host and his wife. Shortly before the meeting, we learned that I was to be the first person to brief the Director of Central Intelligence on the subject of UFOs and extraterrestrial (ET) intelligence: Woolsey had made inquiries but had received no information on the subject from any official government channels.

Naturally I came prepared with a large briefcase filled with case evidence, witness testimony, photographs and video footage of UFOs, government documents and the like. After a few introductions and pleasantries, we got right to business.

I learned that the CIA Director and his wife had actually seen one of these UFOS in New Hampshire in the late 1960s, in broad daylight. So after about 10-15 minutes of presenting the evidence, Mr. Woolsey said, in effect, "Yes, I know they exist. Now talk to me about what all of this means."

This book is all about what does all of this mean. While this book certainly presents some compelling case evidence, smoking gun government documents and photographs, the core of this book is really about meaning. Any open-minded person can peruse a handful of these cases, government documents and authenticated photographs and conclude, as Mr. Woolsey did, that there is something very real going on here. But now for the interesting part: Why are they here, how has the secrecy been maintained, what are the implications to our society, and what will disclosure of these facts mean? How do these devices travel through interstellar space and get someplace in a life form's natural life time and how can you communicate in real time through many light years of space, and ...

Presented here, then , are a collection of papers which attempt to elucidate these and many other critical issues. The evidence is really the easy part: making some sense of it is what is truly challenging. This book is just such an attempt, one which I offer with the caveat that this is only an initial attempt to unravel one of the greatest mysteries of all time. It is a work in progress. And as we stand on the eve of the next millennium, we can only peer dimly into a reality that is showing us our future.

And so it was that on that night in December 1993, we spent two and a half hours with the CIA Director and the Chief Operating Officer of the National Academy of Sciences discussing the meaning behind the mysteries. I remember discussing geopolitcal implications of disclosing this matter fully to the public. I remember elucidating the implications of disclosing ET technologies that could replace all of the sources of pollution of the world. I remember discussing how religious figures might react to such a disclosure. But one of my fondest memories is of Dr. Sue Woolsey asking, "But how do they communicate through the great distance of space?" I swallowed hard and for an instance contemplated not telling her the truth. But then quickly I realized that if she was perceptive enough to ask the question, perhaps she was ready for the answer. Whereupon I said to her: " Their communication systems are technologies which interface with aspects of reality closely associated with what we would call mind and thought, and this spectrum of reality bypasses linear time and space totally..." And to my astonishment, Dr. Woolsey smiled and said, "I thought it had to be something like that."

She got it. And I am sure that you will too.
