In 1933, the Masonic Eye-in-the-Pyramid Was Added to the dollar bill, Hitler assumed power, Alice of Wonderland fame died, and King Kong appeared in theaters with its enigmatic closing line, "It was Beauty that killed the Beast ..". Coincidence?
Everything Is Under Control is Wilson's A-to-Z of conspiracy theories -- real, half-real, and completely imaginary. Highly cross-referenced and written in a journalistic tone, it includes fascinating information on Area 51, the Bermuda Triangle, Noam Chomsky, Crying of Lot 49, "Bob" Dobbs, Elders of Zion, the federal reserve, Holocaust deniers, Iran-Contra, JFK, Knights Templar, McCarthy, Norplant, Operation Mind Control, Pearl Harbor, UFO abductions, Wicca, and more.
According to the New York Times and Newsweek, public interest in conspiracies is at an all-time high, from Timothy McVeigh and Heaven's Gate to Independence Day and the feature film Conspiracy Theory (starring Mel Gibson). On the Internet, fans run dozens of pages and there are hundreds of links on the life and work of Wilson, who has his own award-winning website. Coincidence?
"One of the most important scientific philosophers of this century -- scholarly, witty, scientific, hip, and hopeful". -- Timothy Leary
