"Into the Bermuda Triangle"


Title:Into the Bermuda Triangle: Pursuing the Truth Behind the World's Greatest Mystery
Author: Gian J. Quasar
Published Year: 2004
Pages: 294
Genre: Non-fiction, metaphysical, science

This is not your ordinary Bermuda Triangle book. Instead of looking at just one idea behind what could be causing hundreds of planes and boats to disappear within the coordinates of the area nick-named the Bermuda Triangle, the author looks at different ideas each with its own backing and scientific information regarding each one. The book is well referenced and uses many eye witness accounts as well as quotes from other material that was used while doing the research for this book.

Quasar starts out the book with an introduction about the triangle with a bit of background on the triangle, where it is thought to exist and other pertinent information. From there he moves onto chapters that include information on missing ships and planes that were last reported in the area. In addition to some of the more well-known cases, the author also includes information on ones that are not well known. He has done extensive research on the subject of the triangle and this is extremely evident based on the information he shares within the pages of this book.

Of course, my favorite part of the book is the vast amount of information he provides on the different theories of why there are so many disappearances, and he also mentions the Devil's Triangle and how it is similar to the Bermuda Triangle (the Devil's Triangle is Japan's version of the Bermuda Triangle and there are similarities between the two). These theories include the following ideas: ufos, a sunken continent, and vortexes just to name a few that he mentions and explains. There were things in this book that I had not even thought of when it comes to the Bermuda Triangle.

There are so many books out there on the subject, but none that I have come across are as well detailed as this one is. In addition many of the other ones out there do not introduce some of the theories that are presented here, and this book is awesome in that regard.
