UFOs for the 21st Century Mind

The Definitive Guide to the UFO Mystery: New and Expanded Edition

By: Richard Dolan

Narrated by: Richard Dolan

In this revised and expanded edition of Richard Dolan's previous classic on the UFO subject, he brings the listener through the tumultuous journey of the UFO/UAP subject through the early 2020s. This includes a detailed treatment of the changes to our public discussion of UFOs since 2017 and what is the likely end point of this new direction. But Dolan provides much more than this, including providing critical context of the UFO subject within the broader social, political, and technological developments of our world, something that makes him unique among UFO researchers.

Moreover, he never shies away from incorporating a “big picture” analysis to the phenomenon, asking difficult but important questions such as:

• How can we assess the likely intentions of the beings behind the phenomenon?
• What is the relationship, if any, between the UFO phenomenon and the current global revolution underway?
• What is the likely end game to UFO visitation as well as the government policies of secrecy?
• Can humanity achieve a genuine and truthful UFO “disclosure”?

Through it all, Dolan applies meticulous care in assembling facts, organizing relevant ideas and concepts, and presenting the rich history of UFOs as only he can do. For a book that was already a classic of UFO literature, Richard Dolan has given us an up-to-date version of what remains the greatest mystery of our time, covering the subject for beginners and experienced researchers alike. He offers fresh insights on everything connected to UFOs: ancient aliens, modern encounters, abductions, channelers, the politics and cover-up, the black budget world, the bizarre science, the social dimensions, the future, and much more. UFOs for the 21st Century Mind is a roadmap pointing the way forward in a field filled with uncertainty and obfuscation.

Level headed professional journalism on the topic

Very good performance by the author. An excellent distillation of what the current day UFO seeker needs to get synchronized on what is happening recently with Grusch, Elizondo, etc.

An updated comprehensive classic!

This is an outstanding book that covers the topic in broad strokes with excellent analysis and narration by author.

truthful and thought provoking

We are most definitely not alone, the facts aren't fiction anymore, a new reality awaits us all.

Good History and the Challenge

The discussion concerning possibly multiple Alien cultures examine us. Their agenda is unknown.


Speculation on their reasons and giving the problems that we need to address to find the answers. A good extensive history of the phenomena and the development of a unbiased discipline to study the issue. Admittedly he is a believer. But a rational one.

I did note a subtle ant-vax ideology. But nothing extensive. To be fair personal freedom can have enemies in both government and corporations.

I highly recommend this book. He is generally a believer but not a cult.

good read

lots of good information, easy to understand (though the science chapter is a little heavy for some of us). good insight into the why's of the cover up and how disclosure would affect the world. would recommend.
