Why do conspiracy theories still attract so much interest despite being routinely condemned by the mainstream media as “fake news”? Why do people really believe in conspiracies and is the academic world’s blanket dismissal of theorists as being psychologically damaged fair in an age when mass deception is routinely being exposed? Andy illuminates what it is to be an investigator of conspiracies and takes a revealing look at a subject that deserves far more attention in these fascinating times. 
Andy is one of the world’s leading researchers into unexplained mysteries and cover-ups and is the author of the acclaimed Conspiracies: The Facts – The Theories – The Evidence, published by Watkins, and the renowned The Truth Agenda, among several other books. Andy extensively writes and lectures in Britain and around the world, and has made numerous television and radio appearances.
