Описание: Appartenir a une discipline, lorsqu’elle est envisagee comme une forme particuliere de culture, c’est adherer a des valeurs epistemologiques communes. Ces valeurs unissent les specialistes dans leur facon de definir la « bonne » connaissance et d’en prescrire les theories et les methodes. Dans ce contexte normatif, pourquoi et comment se realise alors la rencontre avec l’Autre disciplinaire ? Dans l’apprehension de l’interdisciplinarite, quelles retombees nouvelles apporte la metaphore de l’interculturalite ? Quel dialogue se construit entre des identites savantes ancrees dans des histoires differentes ? Au-dela des cultures scientifiques nationales, des chercheurs d’horizons divers, souvent emerites ou grands pionniers en Amerique et en Europe, racontent ici leur parcours hors frontieres. Authentiques et passionnants, leurs recits de voyage en terre disciplinaire etrangere, genereux et porteurs de sens, se font riches d’anecdotes revelatrices. Tous refletent a leur maniere l’ideal contemporain de liberte qui meut, a la base, l’elan interdisciplinaire.

Long before the first airplane took flight, when nothing but birds should have been in the skies, the early residents of the United States witnessed bizarre unidentified flying objects of all sizes, shapes, and descriptions. They encountered strange beings that clearly were not human, including "Men in Black" and possibly time travelers. They saw huge motherships, underwater UFOs, and other unexplainable wonders. Some of America's most famous early historical figures, including Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, George Washington, shared an interest in UFOs and extraterrestrials. Contained within these pages is the "other" American History that you were never taught in school
UFO expert Nick Pope says, "If you think the UFO mystery began in 1947 with flying saucers and the Roswell crash, think again. This fascinating, data-rich book explores a wealth of intriguing incidents that were formerly interpreted through the lens of folklore, but which could now lead to a fundamental reappraisal of the greatest mystery of the modern age. With the focus on the 19th century, this delightful tome shines a light on a slice of American history that shows truth really can be stranger than fiction."
Best-selling author Donald Schmitt says, "What Torres and LeMay have clearly defined in this suspenseful thriller tome, is that the UFO accounts portrayed throughout this exhaustively researched work, remain in a separate class.... Aside from a rare hot-air balloon or dirigible, there was nothing else in the air back then... or on the ground; the witnesses are clearly describing something which precedes the Wright Brothers technology.... The simple fact that such cases exist in an era where the sky above us was still pristine and H. G. Wells had yet to conquer the Earth with Martians should captivate us all...."
Ruben J. Uriarte of the Mutual UFO Network adds, "Before airplanes were invented, journalists and scientists of the 19th century recorded hundreds of sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena crisscrossing the skies of America. This amazing new book provides a startlingly detailed look at these early UFO cases, which tend to confirm that we are not alone "
From critically-acclaimed authors Noe Torres, a veteran Texas UFO researcher, and John LeMay, a paranormal researcher and historian from Roswell, New Mexico.

Описание: Psychologist and struggling aspiring writer Kris Bronson was just your ordinary hardworking guy. But that was the problem. He wanted more. Desperate for the search of finding the imagination he craves so badly for his own writing, he looks to the minds of the criminally insane, particularly two men who seem to have survived the annals of time. What started off as a job turned into one of the most fantastical roller-coaster rides Kris would ever experience. Carried by the tales of the Trojan War, to the demise of Julius Caesar, and even a nod to the Arthurian legend of Camelot, Kris finds the imagination he has been looking for. As he sees the magic of these two seemingly insane, dangerous men go to work on his mind, the stories of worlds within our own, guarded by monstrous and magical figures, he realizes that he is doing much more than finding a cure to his writer's block. He is being convinced that there is much more to this world than he ever realized, one that would inevitably be the end of the world as we know it by the hands of a modern-day terrorist that seems to have his own magical ties to Kris and the two men he conducts his sessions with.

It is all the little moments that make us, even those that seem least significant at the time.

The less extraordinary lives of the majority all contribute to the history, ancestry, and, perhaps, even the destiny of this place we call home.
