<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>From flying saucer crashes to underground alien bases, a number of modern mythologies have come into being since the advent of the UFO era in the 1940s. But how much of these myths is real, versus being the invention of either government agencies or deluded conspiracy theorists? <em>Saucers, Spooks and Kooks</em> provides an eye-opening survey of the history behind these stories, and the individuals promoting them.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<em>Saucers, Spooks, and Kooks</em> is a brilliantly original way of explaining the massive rise in conspiracy theories in today's age of hyper-individualism. Adam Gorightly tells a fascinating story not just about the rise of conspiracy theories and the people involved, but also how their emotional drives and inner psychologies shaped the strange stories - making them ever more complicated and bizarre. It's a very modern kind of history that properly explains our time. Because it shows how the forces that have led us into today's strange world lie as much inside peoples' head as in the world outside them." </p><p><br></p><p>- Adam Curtis, film-maker (<em>The Power of Nightmares</em>, <em>HyperNormalisation</em>, <em>The Century of the Self</em>)</p><br>
