And They Witness Light Across the Sky explores the cultural
reasoning behind notions of belief relevant to the concept of
extraterrestrial UFOs. From pop-culture to politics, from New-Age
religions to folk tales, hoaxes, escapism and paranoia, much has
contributed to the phenomenon of flying saucers, alien abductions
and visitors from other worlds. Combining visual studies of key
individuals, with a look at the likely source of their belief
structure, the book explores diverse themes and events in an
attempt get to the root of such claims. From suicide cults, to
fairy-tale myths, Nazi rocket technologies, to modern
Egyptian-themed alien temples, it is a trip around many strange
corners of culture and society. Includes over 100 full colour
original artworks.
