Crop circles are complex designs of various symbolic natures -- mathematical, geometrical, fractal, religious, even human DNA -- that speak to an arcane part of us, originating from seemingly nowhere in fields of ripe grain around the world in increasing intensity.

Freddy Silva has been researching the subject firsthand for more than ten years, and is a major figure in the growing controversy over the origin of the circles. In Secrets in the Fields, he reports the history of circles, their nature and symbolism, the issue of man-made hoaxes, and gives the reader a vivid sense of what it's like to be in a crop circle just after it's made.

Silva then presents a lucid and persuasive argument for the validity of the crop circles as a transhuman event, and he discusses them in terms of their production by acoustical, electromagnetic, light, and other powerful sources. Finally, he discusses the 'themes' of each year's crop circle season, and suggests their growing design complexity represents a progression of messages meant to re-awaken humankind to the deep wisdom of the Earth.
-- Copiously illustrated with black & white photographs, circle redrawings, diagrams, and a color insert
-- Systematically rebukes the many hoaxes and man-made circles, providing a framework for deciphering the clues and meaning of legitimate circles
-- May well be the best book available on an endlessly fascinating and controversial topic
