Forbidden Science: Journals 1957-1969

By Jacques Vallée

Categories: Biographies & Memoirs, Science & Math

Forbidden Science, first published in 1992, is the first volume of Jacques Vallée's journals, covering 1957 to 1969, from his student years and astronomy work in France to his move to the United States. The entries follow his collaboration with J. Allen Hynek at Northwestern University, his growing interest in UFO reports, the politics of Project Blue Book and the Condon Committee, and his doubts about how official science treated the subject.
