It is what it is. Lovely photos and history snippets. The chapters consist of history, causes and creators, and how a message might be in the designs. The book ends with a note to be kinder to the Earth and that the future looks grim but doesn’t have to be.

A great book for anyone looking to get a general overview of the chronology and information that surround the crop circles.

Pictures are also fabulous. It ends in 2001/2, which leaves 8 more years of crop circle history to investigate on the net.

It doesn't go super deep into theories, but then again, that's not it's main objective. It is primarily a great visual reference. The images are great, good quality.

Of all the crop circles books I've read (ok so about 5) this is the best in every sense. It has various theories, detailed explanations, dazzling images, a good historical overview, and both objective and subjective viewpoints.
