  ‘If you’ve read anything about the alien abduction enigma, then you will surely have heard the term ‘the greys’ which, of course, refers to the small grey humanoids involved in such experiences. In this book, investigator and experiencer Philip Kinsella draws on his extensive experience to pose the crucial questions about this phenomenon. The author also looks at the similarities with other high-strangeness experiences with a wide variety of otherworldly beings around the globe. If you have any interest in these subjects, then this could well be the book for you.’  Philip Mantle, British Ufologist, researcher, and author.  
  ‘Philip Kinsella’s Terrestrial Trespassers is an up-to-date, intelligent and broad-ranging survey of the alien abduction phenomenon, which explores many related paranormal phenomena as an integral part of the author’s thesis. Illustrations (many by Ronald Kinsella), archive photos, graphs and maps relevant to the narrative text enhance the reader’s experience by bringing the story alive. Highly recommended for both those new to this study and those more familiar with the literary canon on the subject.’  Steve Aspin, author of Out of Time: The Intergenerational Abduction Program Explored (2022) 
  ‘Excellent writing and ideas.  Philip explores numerous aspects of this strange phenomenon and includes a spiritual discussion.  One idea is that the Greys may be clones or artificially fabricated and may have eradicated the elements of their ‘spirit,’ which humans possess.  They may see using us as a method to escape such a robotic existence.’  Dr Irena McCammon Scott, author of "UFOs Today: 70 Years of Lies, Misinformation, and Government Cover-up."

  Witnessing the growing division in our communities, cities, and country is heartbreaking. Our worlds feel ripped apart, and we all know the pain of feeling separated. 
  While we universally agree on the need to bridge our divides, our calls for unity often intensify our differences instead of healing them. One significant reason is the irresponsible use of science. Its misuse, abuse, and overuse have deepened our divides. 
  This book begins with accessible chapters on the fundamentals of scientific tools, gradually progressing to discuss their abuse in the most contentious debates of our time, including global warming, COVID-19, Big Pharma, abortion, and gender fluidity. 
  After reading, you'll gain the ability to critically assess scientific claims in the news and engage in debates where science is misrepresented. Join me on this journey to unravel the misuse and limits of science and take a transformative step toward healing our divide.

  American Monsters: The History...

  Editors Charles River

  People have always been fascinated with the hidden, the mysterious, and the unexplained. Every society has its tall tales and ghost stories, its odd legends, and heroes. Also, every society has its stories of strange beasts, dangerous or benign, that live in the twilight world between the everyday and the legendary. Through most of history, people have been closely tied to nature, hunting in forests and having an intimate knowledge of the animals in their regions. So-called “primitive” peoples were walking encyclopedias of the natural world, and yet most believed there were more creatures lurking in those woods than the ones they usually encountered. Even as the world becomes more connected, the belief in strange creatures continues as strong as ever. 
  	As a result, in one sense it shouldn’t be surprising that people across the United States have reported seeing weird cryptids, including giant birds, sea serpents, wolfmen, and a creature so bizarre it defies any rational classification. The only thing these monsters have in common is that all have been seen regularly and reported by seemingly sober, rational witnesses in the United States, even as conventional science suggests these monsters cannot exist and that all the sightings are mistakes, misidentifications, or hoaxes.  
  	In some cases, this may be true, but in others, it’s harder to accept. For example, one story about a 10-year-old boy being carried off by a giant bird was witnessed by several other people. Likewise, the Gloucester sea serpent seen by hundreds of people and carefully and scientifically investigated, and during one week in 1909, hundreds if not thousands of people reported seeing the Jersey Devil. Sightings of wolf-like creatures walking on two legs have been reported for more than 100 years.
