Product Description

Product Description

In "Secret Life", Professor David M. Jacobs of Temple University takes us into the private world of those abducted by aliens, letting them describe in their own words what it is like to be abducted. Based on interviews with sixty individuals and more than 300 independently corroborated accounts, "Secret Life" presents the most complete and accurate picture of alien abductions ever compiled.

Dr. Jacobs takes the reader on a minute-by-minute journey through a typical abduction experience and describes in detail the bizarre physical, mental and reproductive procedures that abductees claim have been administered by small alien beings. Jacobs draws from these interviews a profoundly unsettling reason behind the abductions: aliens are conducting a complex reproductive experiment involving the conception, gestation, or incubation of human and alien hybrid beings.

Dr David Jacobs is a serious-minded history professor (not a crank as you might expect), and uses his sober academic skills, particularly at evaluating evidence, to examine the superficially unbelievable possibility that a small but growing proportion of people are abducted by aliens. His conclusion that this is probably happening is very carefully argued and evaluated and, though incredible, follows almost inescapably from the (circumstantial but compelling) evidence.

If this sounds all too weird, please read the book. I like to think I'm an intelligent reader (university educated and all that) and though initially sceptical I was convinced by his arguments.

You may also (or instead) like to read the successor to this book, The Threat, which adds more recent evidence and draws some very disturbing conclusions about just what the aliens' ultimate reason for the apparent abductions might be.

I highly recommend this book to everyone.

I managed to read it in four days, and I couldn't put it down.

Jacobs is unbiased and balanced in his summary of what is happening, and his presentation of an abduction scenario is beatifully done.

Secret Life is in a sense better than Jacobs latest book, The Threat. Every American should read this book, and then make their own conclusions on what is happening. Secret Life gives an excellent overview of the abduction phenomena.

I loved this book! It's good to see someone approach the subject of abductions analytically. After having read so many overly emotional, or new-age type books on the subject, it's nice to read something that just says, "Hey, this is what I've found again and again, in numerous investigations. This is how it seems to happen. AND this is what we may be able to expect next, based on what we've seen so far." He also wrote The Threat-
