Everything is not as we are told: there is a hidden side of reality, a universe of secret plans and covert operations. This is the usual way of thinking of people who tend not to trust official information. This is how legends are born about what ‚really happened‘: about the filming of the moon landing in the Arizona film pavilion and the pharmaceutical lobby, about genetically modified foods and the events of September 11, 2001, about Egyptian pyramids, aliens, reptiloids, political conspiracies and the new world order. However, it is not necessarily uneducated people and fringe figures who believe in fairy tales – presidents and Nobel laureates are powerless against conspiracy theories. In his analysis of conspiracy theories and their implications, Rob Brotherton, a leading expert on the psychology of conspiracy theories, does not attempt to discern between truth and fiction. He is interested in why conspiracy theories are so appealing to us, and he finds the explanation in human nature. And the journey into our inner world is more fascinating than the most implausible stories of the world order.
