[.ca] Crop Circles: Exploring the Designs & Mysteries (ISBN 1579902979)

Worth the money, even if all you do is look at the pictures:
While living in Europe, I had the unique experience of seeing a crop circle. It doesn't matter whether you believe they are human or alien made, there is no debate about the fact that crop circles are beautiful and this book does a superb job of showing off their beauty. The photos are great, and the information provided about the history, origins and stories surrounding them is interesting. Target audience: Conspiracy theorists interested in crop circles, people who love aerial photos of nature and possibly even just people who live near fields of crops --> as you drive by tall fields of crops, you'll look at them a little differently once you've been exposed to the world of crop circles. It might even be a fun gift for a someone who might enjoy trying to 'fake' a crop circle as an activity.

Natural Magic:
A beautifully illustrated and well-designed book, the pictures and stories elucidate the feelings of wonder and transcendence that surround the crop circle phenomenon. The authors balance their presentation by including true accounts from some of England's leading circle makers. The section on natural laws and geometry is also original and informative.
