My formal undergraduate engineering education was mostly in the 60s but I have been reviewing physics, astronomy, propulsion, particle physics and UFOs during the last year or two through online courses and articles as well as numerous texts and am very interested in UFO propulsion since I am convinced that we have recovered some so I am finding this book very, very interesting! It is quite technical so may not be for the average reader but if you have some background or an interest in the area I would highly recommend it! It is well written, well organized and very well referenced, with lots of good illustrations.I was actually amazed to find such a book with a 2008 copyright since I didn't think there was this much unclassified information available that long ago on Domed Craft propulsion as Mr. Potter calls it. Great work Paul!I should maybe add that I read and studied Dr. Beardon's "Energy from the Vacuum" about a decade ago so his work and these studies helped prepare me for Paul Potters book also.

Amazing information
Paul Potter is amazing. To read this information that he has obtained about gravity manipulated ET crafts largely from reading Ray Fowler's accounts of Betty Andreasson and her family's encounters with ETs is amazing. What a read. He has a great realization of how to Interpret what see reported viewing and then incorporating it with his understanding of propulsion dynamics. This is intense, yet he helps the novice understand this information with ease. Wonderful publication if you are interested in really learning how this technology works and can be applied to our daily living on this planet in this day and age.

Physics for the layperson
Another reviewer sees fit to condemn this book as illustrated fantasy, but since the book cites numerous published physics articles in detail, I suspect that the critic has not bothered to read it. Probably he is merely complaining about the dearth of equations, as if that's the only criterion for deciding whether a given book is scientific or not (without conceding that he's expressing simple prejudice against the notion that a "UFO" could be real).But as Potter points out, reliance on equations which describe linear thrust could be what is tying the hands and blinkering the vision of scientists, and thus tending to inhibit them from thinking about other ways that propulsion could be achieved (and apparently has been achieved, though possibly not yet by earthbound humans). The new concept here is using reverse-gravity fields to PULL the craft forward (as if falling into a gravity well in front of it) instead of to PUSH it from behind using chemical fuels, such as in a traditional rocket.It's because the curving lines of magnetic force are more difficult to describe with equations, the author explains, that illustrations are used instead. And many of these showing spiralling lines of force are well crafted and elegant; some are even in colour. These drawings should be worth not just a thousand words, but also equivalent to a goodly number of obscure mathematical expressions that don't communicate anything to an intelligent "lay" reader whose eyes glaze over when confronted with the gobbledegook known as calculus. Books which rely on equations to "prove" a scientific point thus exclude general readers, and address only those who can use the same jargon.To have an overview gravitational control with good artwork is very welcome for the non-mathematician who finds this subject intriguing. Because the possibilities in this technology might help us get past reliance on the combustion model of air transportation, this work is very timely, and people interested in "greening" of our energy system might like to learn about the physics involved. Turning to gravity control for specialized applications instead of simple thrust might both eliminate harmful chemicals and provide military advantage; the UFO model is far more maneuverable than a traditional fuel-burning jet which cannot execute a right-angle turn without breaking apart.But it's due to the weakness of the English-language writing that I feel I must downgrade this book to a 4; I might even mark it down to 3.5 but there doesn't seem to be a half-star option! The frequency of run-on sentences and other grammatical failings result in having to re-read some paragraphs a couple of times to make sense of them. Some cleanup of the technical glitches in the writing would have resulted in a clearer text to accompany the illustrations. I hope that a future version will receive the attentions of a competent editor, so that the text is both worthy of the technical illustrations -- and more concise! Probably this book could be quite a few pages shorter, and still communicate these concepts even more effectively.

Didn't help!
I bought this book to help me repair my flying saucer. Did not work!!!! I AM STILL STUCK ON YOUR STUPID PLANET!!

This book has become like a reference for me
This book has become like a reference for me. It's a whole lot to take in and understand in just a casual reading. It's way over my head in a lot of areas, but Potter gives plenty of citations to scientific literature to support his propositions. I read it frequently. I give copies to interested friends. Excellent.
