SULFUR, La., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ Many are skeptical and raise their eyebrows when they are asked about the truth of UFOs. For retired chemist B. Timothy Pennington, sometimes the truth cannot be hidden or just locked away anymore. In his newly released book, Science, Skeptics, and UFOs, he offers everyone a book on UFOs that's unlike anything previously published. He takes on a different approach by presenting the viewpoint of the scientific establishment, skeptics, and ufologists squarely and fairly while demonstrating a scientific approach, which he should have done decades ago. What makes this UFO-related read unique is that it's written on a personal level and with an adventurous style, making it more intriguing and interesting to UFO fans and skeptics alike.
