After several years of being out of print and becoming a bit of a collectors item; TAKEN, the startling accounts of alien abduction as documented by the late Karla Turner, has been refreshed and reissued faithfully with the sole input and authorization from husband Elton Turner. With a new foreword written by the legendary Nick Pope who with 21 years of experience at the British Government's Ministry of Defence and an incredible history of research and broadcasting, puts it best that Taken is a real 'researcher's book'. This is the ultimate investigation of the paranormal links between humans and 'other worldly' beings. About the Author: Dr. Karla Turner focused on the psychology and ethics of those alleging that they had been abducted, visited, probed and tormented by extraterrestrial beings. As a former college instructor who held a doctorate in Old English Studies as well as a B.A. and M.A. earned in both America and England respectively; Turner gave her heart and soul to help those trying to make sense of the things that didn't make sense. Dr Turner lost her battle to breast cancer in 1996 but her legacy to the paranormal field is all but not forgotten.
