FOREWORD
How times have changed! In 1958, I ordered my first book on UFOs, USAF Captain Edward J. Ruppelts seminal The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects, because it was only one dollar and I needed one more book to save on shipping costs for my large book order. The Air Force was co-sponsor of the General Electric Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion Program on which I was then working as a nuclear physicist. We spent $100 million that year and it was fun, so I was an Air Force fan.
I have read a great many other UFO books since then and even written some of my own as a full-time ufologist since 1970. Nancy du Tertres stimulating new book, How to Talk to an Alien, represents a unique contribution to the now huge volume of publications about UFOs. She has rather unusual qualifications as both a licensed attorney, former host of her own radio show, and practicing psychic who has worked with police departments and UFO witnesses. This book covers a great deal of ground and contains many fascinating discussions. These range from what can easily be accepted as ufological aspects of the beginning of the major religions to the abductions of Betty and Barney Hill and others. She discusses not only a choice between oral and telepathic communication, but physiological requirements for oral communication. She reviews both the abduction and contactee literature. She also takes note of the SETI communitys efforts to send messages to aliens both via radio telescopes and plaques on various spacecraft. The SETI literature doesnt deal with talking to aliens because they know nobody is visiting earth. Presumably, according to their logic, if we had visitors, they would want to land on the White House lawn or talk to SETI practitioners!
Nancy notes several cases in which there seems to be more than one mode of communication by and with aliens. In our book, Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience, written primarily by Kathleen Marden (the niece of Betty Hill) in 2007, we documented how the Hills heard their abductors making sounds they could not interpret and that they also appeared to be communicating by telepathy. Nancy also examines the old biblical story of the Tower of Babel, which seems to have led to there being many different languages being spoken on Earth from a new viewpoint. Obviously, this leads the reader to the possible conclusion that there may have been many colonies established by different aliens from various extraterrestrial locations, each speaking a different language. We know that prior to Christopher Columbuss long voyage to the New World, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch were not spoken in the New World.
