About book Voodoo Histories: The Role Of The Conspiracy Theory In Shaping Modern History (2009)
This was an interesting insight into the mindset of the average conspiracy theorist, interwoven into explanations and debunkings of influential western conspiracies. I enjoyed the read, and took a lot of useful insight from it, though it was plain to see that Aaronovitch got a bit too caught up in researching various conspiracies - he could have spent more time explicitly discussing the differences between each theory and building on his profile of a theories, where instead each chapter stands fairly distinct from the others. while reading Voodoo Histories: The Role Of Conspiracy Theory Shaping Modern History, i learned to see conspiracy theories in different manners and views. i can say some what im heading in the same direction of the author David Aaoronovitch, because when he first got hooked on conspiracys he was completly new to them. Surely after looking into one he looked on to others, he couldnt get enough, as do i, i love hearing of all the contriversial things that could be going on. from secret bases funded by our goverments to what presidents did with celebreties. in others expampels of why i liked this book and theories alike is because they are as close as we get to sci fi sometimes, reffering to conspiracys about future tech and bases.when i read the one text "our age is obsessed by the idea of conspiracy" it made complete sence, because at random in school any one randomly spits out a conspiracy, from illuminaty controlling celebraties, to the goverment lieing, some one has a theorie to mention.over all i think this book is great, it didnt just talk about theoeries alone, but what exactly makes a conspiracy theory and how the idea has to be viewed in order to be rejected as a conpiracy theory.
