At the end of chapter 4, both the United States Air Force and Royston Paynter write about the UFO phenomenon and both author’s perspectives relate to how we should think about the concept of “evidence” in this controversial field. This gives us a good opportunity to take a closer look at this crucial topic in critical thinking.
