Everything is not as we are told: there is a hidden side of reality, a universe of secret plans and covert operations. This is a habitual way of thinking of people who tend to distrust official information. This is how legends are born about how it “really” happened: about filming the moon landing in the Arizona movie theater and the pharmaceutical lobby, about genetically modified foods and the events of September 11, 2001, about the Egyptian pyramids, aliens, reptilians, political conspiracies and a new world order. But it is not necessarily poorly educated people and marginals who believe in fables - both presidents and Nobel laureates are powerless before cospirology. In analyzing conspiracy theories and their consequences, Rob Brotherton, a leading authority on the psychology of conspiracy theories, does not try to figure out what is true and what is fiction. He is interested in why conspiracy theories are so attractive to us, and he finds an explanation in human nature. And the journey into our inner world is more exciting than the most implausible stories of the world order.
