Aliens: Past, Present, Future covers the subject of
extraterrestrial life from every angle, from the earliest
speculations more than 400 years ago to today's ongoing search for
Earth 2.0. In between are lessons learned about how life originated
on our own planet, as well as the story behind the vast cult that
has grown up around "flying saucers" and strange visitors from
other planets, including popular culture renditions of them.The
book is organised into three parts. Part 1 reviews humankind's
changing thinking about possible worlds other than our own through
history. Part 2 discusses the science of extraterrestrial life in a
way that every reader - non-scientist and scientist alike - will
understand. And Part 3 explores the deep impact the idea of
extraterrestrial beings has had - not only on science and space
exploration but on popular culture as well - and its potential
impact on philosophy and religion. The very concept of
extraterrestrial life has been a driving force behind our
exploration of the universe and a pervasive presence in movies,
books, comics and advertising throughout the past century. Written
by bestselling author Ron Miller, the book features more than 200
illustrations - from centuries-old engravings, book, comic and
magazine art, movie posters, purported UFO photographs, to colour
illustrations showing what today's cutting-edge scientists think
extraterrestrial life could be like. Could there even be aliens
among us already?
