A new (for me) book that I got (used) for $5, with free shipping
Copyright 2019, InterAmerica, Inc.
The book is by a Jungian psychotherapist, whose name showed
up in a Wikipedia piece I put inside a posting here.
(I hadn’t heard anything about it, but that typical, for me
– on the outside looking in.)
It was published in 1982 and is filled with Flying Saucer
speculations in the context of “Psychohistory” as Otto Billig’s sub-title
suggests.
On page 136, for instance, it has information and “artwork”
that indicates my views about the (in)famous Nuremberg/Basel broadsheets are
correct – they are “editorial-like” drawings depicting the rabid times in the
religious milieu -- while some say they are “evidences” of UFO wars in the
skies for the years 1561 and 1566, with a few others writing that the
broadsheets are drawings of witness weather observations. (They are neither.)
I know the broadsheet discussion has run its course here and
you are all bored to hell with it, so skip that part of the book or my postings about the damn sheets.
But the book and the idea that UFOs are a problem to be
dealt with via psychotherapy, as Dvelys suggested in a comment here, are grist
for debate, by some of us, not all surely but a few who visit here. (Thank you,
Dvelys.)
It’s a delightful book, about UFOs, along the line(s) set out
by Jung’s treatise on Flying Saucers, by one of his advocates.
Look for it. It doesn’t come cheap. I was lucky to find a
good copy, for a few dollars, from a seller on Amazon.
I’ll input some material from it – no, not those damn
broadsheet thingies – but some of the better offerings in the book from the
brilliant Otto Billig, who is relatively unknown, sadly.
