Although
science regards them as no more than clever manmade designs, many
researchers say there is compelling proof that the origins of these
mysterious formations is unexplained. Here are some fascinating
books and approach the subject with unique perspectives. |

1)
Crop
Circles : The Greatest Mystery of Modern Times
Lucy Pringle, one of the foremost photographers of crop circles, has written a
well-rounded, detailed account of the crop formation phenomenon. This is a book
that should be of interest to both believers and skeptics alike because Pringle
presents the information in a reasonable, even-handed way. Plus, it's
illustrated with her beautiful aerial photographs.

Mysterious
Lights and Crop Circles
No one, perhaps, is more
qualified to write about the mysteries surrounding crop circles than science
reporter Linda Moulton Howe, who has been reporting on the phenomenon (and other
mysteries like cattle mutilations) for decades.
In this book, Howe interviews many knowledgeable scientists,
including a mathematician and a geologist about the strange
occurrences in and around crop circles.

The
Deepening Complexity of Crop Circles: Scientific Research & Urban Legends
Eltjo
Haselhoff has written an interesting volume on crop circles that
examines some of the scientific evidence. This evidence, which is
largely ignored by the mainstream press, includes such unexplained
phenomena as the dead sometimes exploded flies, curious deposits,
germination and more.

Crop
Circles Revealed: Language of the Light Symbols
This
book by Barbara Lamb and Dr. Judith Moore takes a "New Age" approach
to the crop circle phenomenon. Through a "channeled investigation" the
authors conclude that crop circles and Mother Nature's way of helping us all
survive the millennium. It's more of a philosophical approach than a scientific
one, but interesting reading nonetheless.

The
Gift: the Crop Circles Deciphered
Author
Doug Ruby has a unique take on the crop circle phenomena, too. Using his
"common sense intuition," Ruby has created several
three-dimensional models of several crop formations in his efforts to
understand their meaning. He believes they have a specific meaning and
just might have something to do with UFOs. A bit on the "out
there" side, but interesting.
