Them

De: Whitley Strieber

Narrado por: Whitley Strieber

Them is the first book ever to examine the intent of the presence known as "aliens" or "visitors" from the perspective of what both civilian and military close encounter witnesses report happening to them.

Mitch Horowitz says in his preface that it's "among the most important interpretations of visitor phenomena since Jacques Valle's Passport to Magonia appeared in 1969."

Jacques Vallee, in the foreword, states that "This book cites fact after fact to build the case for in-depth realignment of public policy with public need."

In part one of the book, Whitley Strieber analyzes the experiences of eleven close encounter witnesses and from that derives the first in-depth picture of what this extremely strange experience may mean, and what our visitors' intentions may be.

In part two, he turns to the military experience, showing how the visitors themselves have forced governments to keep their reality secret, and what the effects of conflict with them has had on public policy as well as the lives of military personnel who have confronted them. Strieber also discusses why conflict situations occurred in the past and why this may be continuing.

He then explores the enormous difficulty of communication between species with differently structured brains, and how these issues can be recognized and addressed.There has never been a book written like Them. It is as much a first as Mr. Strieber's groundbreaking volume about his own close encounter, Communion. While, with the exception of a final, riveting chapter, it does not deal with his own experiences, in it he takes advantage of over three decades of study and research to create a vision of contact that may prove foundational to useful understanding of what is now a confused, sometimes violent, and fraught relationship.

Conflicted

I like listening to the stories people share, I don't really care for the analysis. I can do my own analysis, but I get why he wants to do it. He comes from a time where experiencers were treated pretty harsh, but these days it's way more acceptable and many platforms welcome us. Also, I just can't with his outdated views of climate change, overpopulation, etc. Many of the claims he makes about the world (views that come from the not so good guys) have been proven false. Stop blaming humanity for the wrongs in this world, we were born into this world that was and is clearly molded by people that think they know what's best for us. All you can do is work on you, and I think that's the moral of the story THEY are trying to teach us.

Whitley's brilliance never gets old

I loved listening to Whitley read this deep and moving book. While the topic isn't new, this particular slant on it makes me ever more curious. I likethathe doesn't give us "the answer," but wish he would say even more about what he knows for sure. Maybe next the!

Star Trek Was Never Like This

I’ve been a follower of Whitley Streiber for over 30 years. He makes regular reference to how his UIP stories are mocked, but I’ve always found his research to be sincere and well-researched. As a self-admitted skeptic of UFO stories of the past, it made his commitment to research all the more genuine.

Them is an excellent roll up of what he has published since the 1980’a in book form or his podcast, Dreamland. I’ve never seen the UFP topic of these specific creatures better than Them 👽.

I encourage to be open minded and just LISTEN to what Streiber says in these pages AND the thousands of contacted people that sent letters to Whitley and Anne about their experiences. You can’t just make this stuff up based on the unplanned common straits of the Visitor phenomena.

Star Trek always wraps up complex stories of First Contact too easily as an entertainment platform. If this story is our true First Contact then the entire process is a lot more complicated than others realize. Them will be an important research piece used by UFP scientists for decades.

Loved this thoughtful consideration of the phenomenon

Whitley uses his own personal experience and the accounts of other to look at the abduction phenomenon from the perspective of the Visitors.
Interesting and thought provoking! Loved it.

climate change is BS Whitley

it was performed very well and the stories he read were very fascinating but once it became the big climate change scam it was painful. I know Whitley means well but seriously dude climate change is a hoax
