Næsten alt hvad man kunne ønske sig at vide om konspirationsteorier ... Bogen giver et nemt og overskueligt overblik over et hav af forskellige konspirationsteorier - måske med lidt for stor vægt på 9-11 efter min smag. Jeg havde gerne set lidt mere stof om hemmelige selskaber, hvor forfatterne bruger forholdsvis meget plads på Frimurerne, som naturligvis også har været meget oppe i tiden takket være Dan Brown. Men absolut interessant og til tider morsom - som de fleste 'For Dummies'-titler
