This is an amazing book and I always thought it would make a great film or series.
The ideas within it are heavily linked with disclosure and its effects.

Here is the book on amazon:

The Overlords appeared suddenly over every city--intellectually, technologically, and militarily superior to humankind. Benevolent, they made few demands: unify earth, eliminate poverty, and end war. With little rebellion, humankind agreed, and a golden age began.
But at what cost? With the advent of peace, man ceases to strive for creative greatness, and a malaise settles over the human race. To those who resist, it becomes evident that the Overlords have an agenda of their own. As civilization approaches the crossroads, will the Overlords spell the end for humankind . . . or the beginning?
Ooh will look forward to that. Have just bought Childhoods end (plus Rendezvous with Rama and The city and the stars) from my local bookshop. Can't believe I hadn't read it before!!
