Waiting for the Martian Express: Cosmic Visitors, Earth Warriors, and Luminous Dreams

Some material in this book was adapted from the Early Field-Notes series. Originally titled A Critical Look at the New Age, a name the author considers more accurate, though it was changed at the urging of Publishers Group West, the distributor at the time, the book explores a full range of New Age phenomena, including channels, past lives, shamans, healing, and more. Grossinger distinguishes genuine phenomena from New Age marketing, while also examining the approaches of both scientific skeptics and fundamentalist critics who attempt to debunk the movement.
