The Mammoth Book of Conspiracies (Mammoth Books) by Jon E. Lewis

The Mammoth Book of Conspiracies (Mammoth Books) Reviews

  It started off as quite interesting with a very mixed set of conspiracies but I soon tired of the sloppy grammar and repetitive structure of it. Definitely would’ve worked better as a short pocketbook of theories or something, there were just too many in this.
  
  That said, the USA is terrifying.

  In a world where orange is the new black, this book tells you that what you see is not what it really is. It is a world full of lies, secrets, and remote control by unknown powers. But it is just that, a book of conspiracies. And heck, conspiracies are just a web of lies, for psychological control of the target audience. While some seem plausible, others are way too doubtful, like that one that former POTUS Barrack Obama is an alien (a lizard at that, he was seen catching a fly on live television). Others, the jury will forever be sequestered for a verdict.

  I really enjoyed this book as it had a lot of conspiracy theories in that I wasn't familiar with and I liked the way that each one was presented briefly with the author drawing a conclusion as to how likely he felt the conspiracy theory was to be true.
  
  What I did not like, although some people will, were the pages of extracts from other texts related to the conspiracy theories discussed as most of them were from older texts and quite heavy-going to read. With the exception of the Dulce interview, I skipped most of these, although they will doubtmess be of great interest to readers who want a much more in depth view of the cases discussed.
  
  Overall a very good read and a good companion book to "The Mammoth Book of Cover-ups".

  I liked reading about the basic histories and background stories of each conspiracy, because I'd never heard most of them, but I could have gone without the personal rating system as to whether each conspiracy was possible or not. I can judge for myself! Plus, it was a little hard to take his ratings seriously when he gave the possibility of the world ending in 2012 a higher probability than the existence of the Illuminati. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like that's a little silly.

  Not very well-edited and a little too colloquial for my liking but there are some interesting theories in here.

  Liked it although many of these have been talked to death on the internet. There were enough unfamiliar ones to keep me reading though.

  this is a good book if you just want to read a basic overview of some theories. I could've done without the rating at the end of each section.
