The Others (inbunden, eng)

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A mind-bending investigation into the link between UFOs and AI—from the acclaimed author of American Cosmic and Encounters—revealing how non-human intelligence may be shaping our future.

Acclaimed author and religious studies scholar DW. Pasulka uncovers a hidden history of alleged contact between human and nonhuman intelligences—some framed as angels, others as UFOs/UAP—interwoven with the rise of artificial intelligence and the dream of immortality. Pasulka examines the science of life extension and the beliefs of people who have experiences of UFOs.

She unveils a hidden architecture of belief and influence—one in which human consciousness is being reimagined and extended.

Pasulka begins the book with a fascinating and unexpected historical origin story. In the early twentieth century, a censured Catholic visionary predicted that humanity would soon encounter a new form of intelligence—one that would appear alien but was something far strangerBy the mid-twentieth century, other Catholic mystics and science fiction visionaries, like Arthur C. Clarke, echoed similar prophecies, naming the twenty-first century as the critical threshold . . . and we are now at that unparalleled point in human history. It’s time for The Others.

Drawing on first-person interviews, suppressed histories, and access to insiders in science and tech, The Others explores a startling new terrain: where the sacred meets the synthetic, and where the next phase of human evolution may already be underway.
