Just a very simple, straightforward question for anyone posting comments on the Aliens and UFO's forum:
What books on UFO's have you read?
I'd like to find out to what degree we are or are not working with the same set of information as we discuss this subject. In order to simplify this a little let's leave out articles and such and just focus on book length treatments. I'm also leaving abduction books off my own list because I tend to place that subject in a slightly different category in my own mind. I'll leave that for another thread, but feel free to include them if you want to.
The above are just guidelines. Include whatever you feel is relevant. If you've read more than you can list, don't feel obligated to try to remember them all, just indicate such. If you've read few or none, it's okay to indicate that too. Think of this as a survey. Every participant contributes just as much as every other, regardless of his or her response (as long as that response addresses the question).

People will go crazy about what I will say, but an UFO researcher that didn't read Erich Von Danniken and Zecharia Sitchin, is still half-ignorant.

I haven't read any.I'm hesitant because i don't quite know who's information to trust so i simply do my own research.It's too hard nowadays to tell who's giving real info and who's out to just make a buck off the gullible.

You seem to have forgotten the thousands (millions) of Science Fiction novels which contribute a huge part to the information that is discussed here.
After all, a lot of what is discussed in here comes from the human imagination doesn't it? Opinions, guesses, comparisons etc.
