 All I know... June 11, 2005

...is that I know nothing.
This is one of those books I picked up while buying some that were on my short list. It just happened to be in the aisle, and it looked interesting, so it was a total impulse purchase.
That said, I was intrigued from the first page, and could not put this one down. Nick Cook isn't some schlub, he's an editor for a mainstream journal, which lends credibility to his efforts at research on a subject I knew nothing about prior to reading this book. Now I want to know more!
It seems that many of those he interviewed were wanting to say more, but were compelled to edit their comments. That tells me there's a LOT MORE to this story, folks.
I understand that the government needs to maintain secrets, but when it comes to technology that could benefit mankind at large, I'm all for the freedom of information.

Really enjoy a well researched book. Subject matter couldn't be more fascinating. Reads as a detective novel. Other books on this subject feel circumstancial and speculative, so it is refreshing to have a guy "pounding the pavement" perspective. I felt like if Nick corroborates the information then you can bet that something is there. If this subject is new to you then, this should be the first book you read. Makes really high tech stuff comprehensible, for the dummer people like me.

This is a very well researched and detailed book. It can be a bit slow at times with all the details, but the author does an excellent job of tying everything together. If you want to know what our "real" government has been up to since WWII, then read this book. The answer will shock you and leave you wondering, "what do they plan to do with this technology and who is actually in control of it".

A fascinating trip through history and government black projects. Nothing in this book is beyond possible. Nick Cook has done a masterful job!

Nick Cook is an amazing journalist. Quite apart from his lucid writing style, his ability and persistence to dig out information to corroborate the data in an environment of absolute secrecy is awsome.
I hope he will continue his "hunt" now that new disclosures are happening, including the discovery of Bearden's Motionless Magnetic Generator (MEG).
An excellent book.
