UFOs by Leslie Kean is a comprehensive examination of unidentified flying objects that compiles documented accounts and firsthand testimonies from credible figures.

Additionally, Ezra Klein discussed the publication on The Ezra Klein Show during an episode titled What the Heck Is Going on With These U.F.O. Stories?, which aired on June 20, 2023. Klein noted during his interview with guest Leslie Kean that she wrote the 2010 book detailing reports from pilots and government officials, and he further highlighted that John Podesta, the former White House Chief of Staff, penned a forward for the volume.
