This book is a collection of essays written by the very scientists and engineers who have led, and continue to lead, the scientific quest known as SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Divided into three parts, the first section, 'The Spirit of SETI Past', written by the surviving pioneers of this then emerging discipline, reviews the major projects undertaken during the first 50 years of SETI science and the results of that research.

In the second section, 'The Spirit of SETI Present', the present-day science and technology is discussed in detail, providing the technical background to contemporary SETI instruments, experiments, and analytical techniques, including the processing of the received signals to extract potential alien communications.

In the third and final section, 'The Spirit of SETI Future', the book looks ahead to the possible directions that SETI will take in the next 50 years, addressing such important topics as interstellar message construction, the risks and assumptions of interstellar communications, when we might make contact, what aliens might look like and what is likely to happen in the aftermath of such a contact.

Finally a book that answers the tough questions about UFOs, Gilmer reveals rare information about little green men and more.

Ghosts, psychics, communicating with the dead, UFOs, angels, ESP, astrology: These and other astounding phenomena are accepted as valid by a substantial proportion of the public. Why do so many members of our scientifically sophisticated society believe in assertions that scientists have roundly and almost unanimously rejected? And what does expressing such beliefs mean for the lives of those who do? Unlike many books on the paranormal, which are focused on debunking or verifying such beliefs, this author is interested in explaining paranormal belief as a sociological phenomenon: Who believes, why, and with what consequences?

Top UFO researchers Paul Whitehead and George Wingfield tell the story of UFOs from their first appearance in cave art, the Bible, through folklore and the emergence of science fiction, to the extraordinary phenomenon as we know it today.

At a young age, Heather saw things that the human eyes had learned to overlook. One night over dinner at the tender age of five, she was telling her family about a man she had seen in her room the night before. Her father informed her that this was not just any man, but her grandfather who had died some thirty years earlier. These visits from the other side became the norm in the coming years. She soon learned her grandfather had the gift of being a psychic/medium and that they would share this gift. In A Bang into Gentleness, Heather discusses how she was introduced and gradually developed her intuition and ability to connect with spirits on the other side. She talks about following her own path to becoming a medium, intuitive counselor, and reiki master. Heathers journey was not always an easy one, and this book takes the reader through the ups and downs of growing up psychic, and reaching her own enlightenment; learning about mindfulness, compassion, and appreciation, and most importantly finding the divine power within.
