Examining nearly every conspiracy theory in the public's consciousness today, this investigation seeks to link seemingly unrelated theories through a cultural studies perspective. While looking at conspiracy theories that range from the moon landing and JFK's assassination to the Oklahoma City bombing and Freemasonry, this reconstruction reveals newly discovered connections between wide swaths of events. Linking Dracula to George W. Bush, UFOs to strawberry ice cream, and Jesus Christ to robots from outer space, this is truly an all-original discussion of popular conspiracy theories.
"I just wanted to let you know that I loved your book and I think it should receive the widest distribution possible."
Jim Marrs, author, The Rise of the Fourth Reich, Rule by Secrecy, and The Trillion-Dollar
"Finally, a scholarly book takes conspiracy theory seriously. . . . I cannot recommend this book highly enough. For fans of science fiction, conspiracy theory or a good spy story (a true story, at that), Cryptoscatology is required reading."
Tessa B. Dick, author, Philip K. Dick: Remembering Firebright
