    About this ebook

    Conspiracy theories have always been able to pique interest among the old and young alike. Unbelievable tales and plans that allegedly took immense planning and impeccable execution have always remained all-time favourites. This book aims to bring to you some of the biggest conspiracy theories ever recorded.

    The words "conspiracy theory" had originally been a neutral term. Since the assassination of U.S. president, John F. Kennedy it has taken a derogatory meaning. Nowadays, conspiracy theories are seen as elaborate cover ups put in place by malevolent intelligence agencies in the best interests of their country's political stance and/or to hide their own mishaps...

      It’s a characteristic of classic conspiracy theories that certain elements of them can be recycled to fit new theories as they arise: think crisis actors, baby-eating Satanists, or FEMA coffififin stores. One could say they are perennial tropes of th
