Explora Books Features 'Glimpses Into Other Worlds' at the BIBF 2026

Explora Books will feature Glimpses Into Other Worlds by Kristy Shanahan at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF), held from June 17-21 at the China National Convention Center (CNCC) in Beijing. Previously showcased at the London Book Fair and now developed into a screenplay, the nonfiction title brings a researched and exploratory perspective to the fair's international literary exhibition.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 2nd Jun 2026 - At its core, Glimpses Into Other Worlds asks how people across history have attempted to explain encounters and phenomena they could not fully understand. To explore this question, Shanahan draws on mythology, historical records, military documentation, religious traditions, and scientific theory while organizing the book into three interconnected areas of inquiry.

The first section, "Outer Space (The Heavens)," surveys accounts of heavenly visitors found in oral traditions, cave carvings, religious texts, myths, and legends from cultures around the world. The section moves from biblical figures such as Enoch and Elijah to Mesopotamian references to the Anunnaki before turning to modern cases, including the 1947 Roswell incident and recent government disclosures concerning unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP). Visually supported by images from NASA and other space agencies, the section examines how stories of unexplained aerial encounters have persisted across centuries and civilizations.

The second section, "Ultraterrestrials and Other Dimensions," shifts from outer space to questions surrounding alternate realms and multidimensional existence. Drawing from both ancient traditions and contemporary reports, Shanahan examines accounts of individuals who describe encounters with other dimensions alongside scientific discussions involving physics, cosmology, and quantum theory. The section considers how different cultures and disciplines have approached the idea of realities existing beyond ordinary perception.

The final section, "The Inner Dimension," focuses on consciousness, spirituality, and human perception. It explores subjects ranging from prophetic traditions and remote viewing to Hindu philosophy and classical metaphysics while also examining modern discussions surrounding consciousness and the nature of the mind. Rather than presenting definitive conclusions, the section investigates how spiritual inquiry and scientific exploration have both attempted to address questions about human awareness and humanity's relationship to the wider universe.

Taken together, the book approaches mythology, science, spirituality, and historical testimony through an interdisciplinary lens, encouraging readers to consider how different societies and fields of study have interpreted the unknown across time.

Kristy Shanahan is a recently retired medical laboratory scientist and educator in biomedical and biological sciences. She holds degrees from the University of Wisconsin, Johns Hopkins University, and Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, where she continues to serve as an adjunct faculty member. Her scientific background and longtime work in education inform the book's research-driven approach to historical, cultural, and speculative inquiry. She lives in northern Illinois with her family and her golden retriever, Rosie.

Attendees at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair are invited to view the book at Explora Books's exhibition booth 5A.B14 at CNCC in Beijing.

Glimpses Into Other Worlds is available on Amazon and other major digital bookstores.
