I have over 100 UFO/Alien and paranormal reference works. This as well as Good's Above Top Secret, along with Unconvential Flying Objects by Dr. Paul Hill and Alien Rapture (MY FAVORITE) by Brad Steiger are the ones I loan out the most. All four books have significant science and technology facts as well as classified government documents you won't find elsewhere. Check out the reviews of all four of these mind blowing works as compaired to all the other UFO/Alien hogwash available. Excellent reference work!

This book was first published in the UK in 1991 under the title "Alien Liaison: The Ultimate Secret" and in 1993 in the USA under the title "Alien Contact." It remains a classic of the genre and essential reading for anyone interested in what the governments of the world know (especially the US Government) and apparently conceal about the ET issue.
By the time this book was published, Tim Good had been researching the UFO phenomenon for more than 30 years and had become well known following his unexpectedly successful 1988 best-seller "Above Top Secret". Here he extends the investigation into related areas of the phenomenon: the cattle mutilations of the 1970s and 1980s, the involvement of elements of the US government in allegedly covering up their possession of downed ET technology, detailed reports of the goings-on at Dreamland and other sites and the active debate about disclosure of the ET issue behind closed doors. There is a lot about the revelations of Bob Lazar, and about the goings-on in Puerto Rico.
One of many sobering facts uncovered by the author: the NORAD Unknown Track Reporting System recorded more than 7,000 objects over North America and the Greenland-Iceland Gap during the 19-year period 1971-1990. The US Air Force confirms these records do exist, but claims them to be exempt from FOIA disclosure on the grounds of "National Security." A mere five of the 7,000 were eventually released to Citizens Against UFO Secrecy, all heavily censored. The rest remain concealed and unavailable to the public.
If you have little acquaintance with what is known about the ET issue and is being concealed, if you have never heard of "Project Snowbird" or "The Cosmic Journey Project" then you need to read this book.
Tim Good is respected in the field and has the confidence of inside sources because he is careful with his evidence and completely free of BS and new-age agendas. He backs up his claims with extensive documented evidence and is very thorough. He maintains complete independence and is a genuine researcher of original material like no other.
Recommended.

This book picks up where Timothy Good's previous book, "Above Top Secret," leaves off. He is an excellent researcher on the UFO subject, and leaves no stone unturned. I bought "Above Top Secret," and was so impressed by it that I went out of my way to find any other books by Timothy Good (this was before I knew about Amazon.com and their search button). "Alien Contact" is a more speculative book than "Above Top Secret," but still solidly researched and extremely interesting. I am surprised at the lack of positive reviews for this great book, and that there is no book cover picture shown for it. This is a great book, and it deserves more positive attention. The best sections deal with Area 51 in Nevada, and the alien craft seen there. One section describes how several military fighter pilots on training runs (at different times) encountered UFOs over Area 51, after disobeying standing orders for all pilots not to overfly the base. Fascinating stuff. There is also a big section on Bob Lazar's Area 51 story. Along with Timothy Good's previous book, "Above Top Secret," and Jim Marrs' book "Alien Agenda," this is one of the best books I've read on the UFO subject. Highly recommended. Get it and read it.
