Would anyone like to recommend a worthwhile UFO related book that has been published since 2001? I bought Leslie Kean's UFOs...and Richard Dolan's UFOs..Vol 2. I'm also interested in watching any half-decent films on the subject.

Has anyone read this?

I picked up a copy for my UFO book collection. It's pretty dry stuff with a lot of reproductions of official documents. The opinion in the introduction on what the word UFO means isn't well supported, but overall, it's a good resource for personal research.

Thanks, I'll probably get it.

The Amazon reviews of the 2007 Tim Good book suggest that it is simply a rehash of his previous books. Is there much new information in it?

If you hadn't put the date constraints on your request, I would have suggested that you acquire a copy of Tim Good's Beyond Top Secret, which is a must have for any UFO book resource. So if you don't have Need To Know, then this is the next best thing and somewhat newer ( I have both ). I'd also get both before I spent money on the MUFON publication. I wasn't as impressed with it as I was hoping. You can find pretty much all the same info on the Blue Book Archive website. If you don't know about that, then check it out at http://www.bluebookarchive.org/

Also, should I presume that you already have the classics? If not. Then you're missing some of the best material ever published ( plus they're collectible ). Try fishing for them at your local used bookstore.
 
Thanks ufology. Yes I have some of the classics including Ruppelt's book, most of Keyhoe's books. I managed to get hold of a copy of Frank Scully's book (not sure it is a classic in terms of its information however!). It might not be a bona fide classic but I've always found the UFO section in Gordon Cooper's Leap of Faith memoir fascinating.
