Synopsis About this title About this edition A Harvard psychiatrist presents accounts of alien abduction taken from the more than sixty cases he has investigated and examines the implications for our identity as a species. John Mack never intended to become an expert in the controversial study of alien abductees. But after investigating over 60 cases of alien abduction through hundreds of hours of interviews and treatment, Dr. Mack now presents the mesmerizing tales of alien encounters revealed by his patients-- none of whom are mentally ill-- and the profound, surprising and at times deeply spiritual impact these experiences have has on their lives. Providing details of alien encounters never before reported or depicted on the screen, the men and women whose experiences are related here in unforgettably vivid detail are not extremists recounting dreams or hallucinations. Rather, as Dr. Mack reports, they are survivors of harrowing, real-life experiences that challenge the most basic assumptions that make up our understanding of our existence and our role in the universe. Mack, M. An extraordinarily rich and strange mind-expanding book.

I have worked with one woman, for example, who went to a capable psychotherapist for presumed sexual abuse and incest-related problems.

Billy Vali. The inconsistancies in the "facts" if we take them at face value and interpretations are too numerous and too large. The accounts presented by this respected psychiatrist point out a uniformity of abuction experiences that defies rational explanation other than what they claim to be. These repressing forces are felt by the abductees to be much more than their own self-protective defenses. As the abduction begins the abductee may experience a subtle shift of consciousness, but this state of being is just as real, or even more so, than the normal one. The first several stories were interesting and not completely unbelievable. Clinically speaking, these individuals were talking about something that had really taken place. According to the abductees, the aliens will frequently communicate to them that they will not, or should not, remember what has occurred.

During that show he spoke at length about a abduction event that happened in the parking lot of a truck stop along the Trans-Canadian Highway.
