The psychological reading

In 1958 Carl Jung published a short book arguing that flying saucers, whatever their physical basis, had become a modern myth: round, shining objects in the sky appearing at a time of nuclear fear, much like the mandalas he saw as symbols of wholeness. He did not say people were inventing them. He said the meaning people found in them came from within. Nearly everything in this guide that asks where a description came from, rather than whether it is true, descends from this book.
