A Scientific Anthology on UFO Witness Testimony

A Scientific Anthology on UFO Witness Testimony

How reliable is the witness? An international collection of scientific papers about the central human factor in UFO reports

Fresh off the press at UPIAR Editions is a monumental anthology edited by Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos and Richard Heiden on the reliability of testimony in ufology.

The editors (one Spanish, the other U.S.) are two veterans of ufology, but what is more important is that 60 authors (many scientists or university professors) from 14 different nations collaborated to write 57 chapters for a text that will remain as a cornerstone of scientifically oriented UAP literature.

Case studies, the value of testimony, psychological perspectives, empirical research, anthropological approaches, measurement scales, epistemological issues… every aspect of testimony and its value, with specific reference to the study of UFO phenomena, is given careful consideration.

The volume (in English) has 711 pages in large format and is available in two editions (with color or black-and-white illustrations) from UPIAR Publications
