Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Before the X-Files and alt.conspiracy, Robert Anton Wilson introduced readers to the "Cultic Twilight" where conspiracy theories thrive. Everything Is Under Control showcases Wilson's eclectic knowledge, spanning topics from John Adams to the Voronezh UFO sighting, and from the Campus Crusade for Cthulhu to the Mothman prophecies. It explores the connections between figures like the Freemasons, the Kennedys, and Princess Diana, all entangled in complex conspiracy theories with endless twists and turns. The book is organized alphabetically, featuring cross-references and URLs to related sites, making it interactive; readers can easily dip in, read through, or follow links from intriguing entries. Wilson’s wit and progressive philosophy shine through, inviting exploration of his unique perspective on conspiracies. Esteemed figures praise Wilson's impact, with Tom Robbins calling him a "dazzling barker" for higher consciousness, Philip K. Dick noting his ability to "reverse every mental polarity," and Dr. Timothy Leary recognizing him as one of the most significant scientific philosophers of his time—scholarly, witty, and hopeful.
