3.0 out of 5 stars Reasonable for a dictionary of conspiracy, 15 Sep 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Everything is under Control (Paperback)

This book is more of a conspiracy dictionary than anything else, so if you're expecting a book that goes deep on every question forget it! But if you wanna know the basics about as many conspiracy theories and cover-ups, from the most plausible ones to the most stupid ones, then this book was made for you. Overall, it's a good book, and even if you're not interested about this kind of things, it'll do you no harm to read and learn about it...

5.0 out of 5 stars Tuned in to the wavelength of parapolitics and conspiracy., 30 April 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Everything is under Control (Paperback)

Appearances of books by RAWilson have become fewer and farther between, so a new release seems like nothing less than a major event. The
publication of Everything Is Under Control would be a major event anyway, though, since it imparts Wilson's thinking on a long, alphabetical
list of conspiracy topics. Best known for hissatiric masterwork, the Illuminatus trilogy (co-written with Robert Shea), but also equally
celebrated among cognoscenti for many volumes of prosody explicating the future-as-it's-happening (Right Where You Are Sitting Now;
Prometheus Rising), this new book summarizes and reviews a large slice of contemporary parapolitical currents. No other writer sees more
clearly the fuzzy line between satire and the reality of conspiracy culture. Wilson frames the discussion with a long, insightful introduction
linking the uncertainty of the times to the attractiveness of conspiracy theory without dismissing the "theories" or swallowing them whole
hog. Wilson's co-author, Miriam Joan Hill, deserves great credit for assembling much of the information from a web site that accepted
submissions for several months before publication.

Of course, many facts and theories did not make it in and readers could quibble with some of the discussion about what's in there. For
instance, Wilson calls the NASA, Nazis and JFK a "reprint" of the Torbitt Document, when in fact it is the first published edition outside the
per order press. In the note about Philip Corso, the retired Army Intelligence office who ostensibly exposed the Roswell military technology
project (Tim Leary once said, "I"ve been working with the technology they gave us since 1963!"), Wilson lists Steamshovel editor Kenn
Thomas as a harsh critic. In fact, Thomas was critical of Corso's critics for jumping the gun and not taking full advantage of the colonel's
obligation to promote his book, The Day After Roswell. Everything Is Under Control is a not an almanac of conspiracy theories--although it
could be used as one--so such criticism is trivial. The book is a think piece that put things into the perspective of Wilson's wit and erudition.
He lists "bisociation" under B, for instance, a term that few researchers know. Arthur Koestler coined it for a certain creative process that
also happens to inform much conspiracy theory. Steamshovel planned to discuss the idea before being upstaged in this manner, in fact, and
may yet examine a few specific examples on the web site soon. So, obviously, Steamshovel readers should tune into Wilson's wavelength. END

3.0 out of 5 stars A conspiracy fans bible, 29 Oct 1999

By	angua99@talk21.com (benson england) - See all my reviews

Covering almost all conspiracies going and many off beat ones. The book is a good read with many facts uncovered about the after effects of the JFK shooting. But the Freemasons turn up just to often and be aware of the flying elephants ????
