"This is a copy of a book, which was found in a donutshaped spaceship on the beach near the Spanish city of Cádiz. It contains only the questions which the residents of the planet Bipopia wanted to ask Earth’s inhabitants, whose activities they have apparently been observing for some time. Did everything happen just as the foreword claims? Be that as it may. In any case, the questionnaire is brilliant and will surely cause the brain of every reader to sizzle. Is making mistakes part of human nature? Are you glad to be a human? Why? Can a man be female? Would it be good to know everything? Are there things for which there are no human words? Innumerable clever, witty, surprising, and tricky questions of the widest variety, organised in categories such as being human, knowledge, society, or art, can be found in this book. No answers are given, simply a lot of material to help the reader, alone or with others, to discuss and to think about oneself and the strange human race and come up with one’s own answers."

"Through questions that operate as a fun chain of queries, it explores what would happen if aliens arrived on Earth and tried to understand our way of life. Following the Socratic method, Ellen Duthie uses both text and image to present, on each page, an atmosphere that adds dynamism while inviting reflection every time we open any of the double page spreads of this book."

– Banco del Libro Committee

"A book for intelligent earthlings (of different ages and sizes), that asks us questions about personal identity, gender, living together, social inequality, the purpose of art, and a long etcetera of topics, effortlessly sparking deep thinking and exchanging of opinions."
