As a kid I had a book about aliens. It was a pseudo-encyclopedia of sorts with different kinds of articles and chapters about extraterrestrials. I was so young at the time, I don't remember a great deal about the text, but many of the pictures were quite striking. My dad got it for me and we loved it, though my mother was not so keen on some of the gore. As I remember, there was a disembodied eye on the cover and one image inside the book was of a hand holding several eyeballs.
