You're one of those people who I assumed had read that one early on. I used to lend/ give that one out to people, since I kept finding it in the used bookstores.
Vallee uses the term "multiverse" rather than "interdimensional" -- wisely, in my opinion, because "interdimensional" implies that the "aliens" hail from other spatial dimensions (a la "Flatland").
"Captured" by Betty Hill's niece is intended to set the record straight by presenting the complete facts of the Hills' experience. Unless you're a serious researcher, skip all the excrutiangly dull, overdetailed sidebars. What made the book stand out from other writings about the Hills is that we see them as real human beings seen through the eyes of someone who loved them, not the archetypes they've become.
Books like this seem to always err on the side of uninteresting detail. People with "normal" lives typically just aren't that interesting to read about.
I need to get those too.
ReplyDeleteYou haven't read Messengers of Deception"?!

I've read all of Vallee's UFO books except "Messengers" and "Challenge to Science." Fortunately, I now have both on my shelf.
ReplyDeleteIs it called multidimensional or interdimensional hypothesis of Mr. Jacques Vallee?

ReplyDeleteMultiverse is the case and a word for physicists ?
ReplyDelete"Multiverse" has become a mainstream cosmological term, but I think it was relatively new when Vallee first applied it to the UFO phenomenon.
