If you are like me and are fasinated by the origins and history of conspiracy theories then this book is for you. The author trys to maintain an objective viewpoint and weighs the evidence before evaluating a given theory.Although he sometimes does advocate for the validity of a theory, it is never overbearing and ultimatly the author leaves it up to the reader to decide whether a theory is sound.The Encyclopedia covers all major Conspiracy theories including JFK, Illumanti/ New World Order, 9/11 conspiracies and chemtrails to name a few.It also covers lesser known conspiracies and various real and imagined plots against various government throughout history.Some might feel the book does not go deep enough into each individual theory. However given the amount of material covered it is understandable.A wealth of knowledge in the paranoid aspects of politics.
Interesting read

I picked this book up at the book kiosk in South Station in Boston before taking the 2 hour train ride home. I managed to get it the day before it officially came out, totally by accident... It seperates popular theories by catagory, sums up the theory, spills the facts, and then either agrees, debunks, or leaves you to your own conclusions. I would say it debunks more than anything else, this read is more for a skeptic (I consider myself one but I picked up the book ready for anything) This deals mostly with conspiracies involving the United States government past & present, although there are international topics as well as religion & UFOs towards the end. A good train read.
