«Aliens ¿Hay alguien ahí fuera?» is Tommaso Pincio's essay on aliens as a contemporary myth, published by 451 EDITORES in hardcover (280 pages, in Spanish).
The book starts from an apparently naive question: if the galaxy is full of worlds, where are the aliens? Pincio suggests that perhaps they don't come from outside, but are a projection of our own fears in the face of scientific and technological advances, such as the atomic bomb. A journey through the alien myth that reflects on the unknown and on how our culture has shaped these beings.
Translated from Italian by Sofía González Calvo, it belongs to the publisher's 451.jpeg collection. Originally published in 2006 as «Gli alieni».
For readers interested in the UFO phenomenon, science fiction and cultural essays that probe the fears of the technological age.
