Where rigorous inquiry meets the edges of human understanding
ID EA PRESS publishes groundbreaking works that challenge conventional boundaries between science, psychology, and anomalous phenomena. We champion authors who bring rigorous methodology to subjects too often dismissed or sensationalised—transforming fringe inquiry into legitimate scholarly discourse.

Our name reflects our mission: the primitive Freudian ID, residing in the unconscious, and Reichian EA, illuminations manifesting in physical reality—we bring hidden knowledge into the light.

Every breakthrough follows this archetypal path: from unconscious possibility to conscious articulation, from hidden to known.

The First Comprehensive Challenge to the Spacecraft Hypothesis
For decades, UFO discourse has been dominated by a single narrative: extraterrestrial craft visiting Earth. From government disclosure programs to mainstream media coverage, the assumption remains unchallenged—UFOs must be spacecraft.
This groundbreaking work offers a radically different framework.
Drawing on declassified government research, scientific field studies, plasma physics, depth psychology, and quantum consciousness theory, Proto-UFOs presents the most comprehensive alternative explanation for UAP phenomena ever published. Rather than alien visitors, UFOs may represent something far stranger: Sentient plasma phenomena intertwined with human consciousness itself.
With Proto-UFOs Beckett bridges disciplines that have never been combined in this way—integrating empirical UFO field research with Jungian psychology, Wilhelm Reich's suppressed plasma studies, and cutting-edge consciousness science.A framework that challenges everything we think we know about UFOs—not through speculation, but through rigorous integration of government research, field studies, and depth psychology that conventional ufology has ignored.


While recent bestsellers like Imminent and In Plain Sight assume technological craft, and American Cosmic explores belief systems, Proto-UFOs provides what's been missing: a scientifically grounded alternative that accounts for the full strangeness of the phenomenon.This work doesn't dismiss the experiential reality of encounters—it takes them seriously enough to seek genuine explanations beyond the comfortable "nuts and bolts" hypothesis.
Anthony M. Beckett brings over 20 years of UAP research experience and a background in analytical chemistry to this interdisciplinary synthesis. From 2009-2015, he organised nine international UFO conferences in the UK under Exopolitics Great Britain, building deep networks across the research community.Holding a BSc in Chemistry and MSc in Analytical Chemistry, with professional experience in pharmaceutical development and software engineering, Beckett applies rigorous scientific methodology to anomalous phenomena. His work extensively engages with Jungian psychology, Reichian research, plasma physics, and consciousness studies—traditionally siloed fields he uniquely synthesises.Beckett represents a new generation of UFO researchers: scientifically trained, psychologically informed, and unafraid to challenge both mainstream dismissal and conventional ufology's sacred cows.His 2016 multi-UAP sighting on Yorkshire moorland—documented in the book—provided direct validation of the theoretical framework developed through decades of research.
