"Written by a leading expert on the subject, this book is the most comprehensive and authoritative examination of contemporary American conspiricism to date. Looking at a wide range of source material - from religious and political to New Age and UFO publications, to pop culture such as The X-Files, Web sites, radio programs, and more - Barkun finds that America is in the throes of an unrivaled period of millenarian activity. His book underscores the importance of understanding why this phenomenon is now spreading into more mainstream segments of American culture."--BOOK JACKET.
