"QAnon and Other Conspiracy Theories" by Kathryn Roberts explores the rise of conspiracy beliefs in contemporary society, particularly focusing on the QAnon phenomenon. The book examines how these theories proliferate in the digital age, fueled by social media and widespread distrust in traditional institutions. Roberts delves into the psychological and sociopolitical factors that drive individuals to embrace these narratives, often leading to real-world consequences. Through case studies and analysis, the author aims to understand the appeal of such theories and their impact on communities, highlighting the urgency of addressing misinformation in a deeply polarized world.
