THE ALIEN WORLD THE COMPLETE ILLUSTRATED GUIDE STEVEN EISLER Professor Steven Eisler uses his immeasurable wit and razor-sharp intellect to assemble the currently available information from both established and obscure sources into the first sensible treatise on the fictitious world of expanding and contracting galaxies and their alien life. When approaching this difficult task Professor Eisler's initial problem was to establish a classification of alien cultures that would be acceptable to academics and, more importantly, clearly understood by the knowledgeable layman with a desire to study alien phenomena in depth. These criteria have been achieved with quite remarkable success. His five principal sectors, or divisions, satisfy all the wishes of his most eminent contemporaries as well as the publishers of this major contribution. The Space that creates the galaxies, universes and their forms is divided into, and named after, five groups: the Oisir-Raxxla; the Human; the Hiraldron; the Narathnu and the Uan-lrec. Professor Eisler has produced a coherent commentary on the geophysical mediums that support the alien, their socio- *r political status, their economies' their communications and their alternative levels of consciousness. Using superbly adapted illustrations from the foremost artists on our planet, who have generously assisted in developing reconstructions of a selected number of the more significant aliens, the author presents an accurate and imaginative account within the organized structure necessary for any serious study of aliens, without losing sight of the many curious ambiguities that surround this subject.(
