Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: fine. First edition. Fine, fresh, apparently unread copy in equally fine, bright, crisp dust jacket. First printing. Hardcover. 192 pp. with bibliography, index. Illustrated with photos. Soon after World War II, alleged sightings of UFOs increased as did arguments about the meanings of these experiences. One of the most prominent theories was that these phenomena represented visitations by extraterrestrial vehicles and ideas arose that such vehicles had come to planet Earth millennia ago. The concept of ancient astronaut visitations exploded into popularity with the publication of Erich von Daniken's world wide bestseller "Chariots of the Gods?". this work critically analyzes the concept from several points of view; the background for ancient-astronaut theory is examined in full (with much of the "evidence" being archeological in nature). The theme is examined both as a work of fiction and as a religious concept as well and its value as science is measured against modern scientific standards.
