Unproven, Unlikely, and Firmly Believed: Why We Fall for History's Most Seductive Conspiracy Theories, and How We Rediscover Reality (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798893031508)

From the Satanic Panic to the anti-vax movement, the moon landing to Pizzagate, it's always been human nature to believe we're being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we absolutely are).

But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the group chat, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own--and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might actually be doing it some damage.

In Unproven, Unlikely, and Firmly Believed, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on an eye-opening journey through history's greatest conspiracy theories, to try and answer a vital question for our times: How can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards and start trusting hard evidence again?
