Off the Edge: Flat Earthers, Conspiracy Culture, and Why People Will Believe Anything - Paperback
As social media has broadened its grasp on humans all over the earth, one of any number of unfortunate side effects has been the proliferation of conspiracy theories and illogical and unscientific thinking more broadly. In this timely and incisive book, journalist Kelly Weill strives to understand the reasons behind this resurgence in conspiratorial thinking. Focusing specifically on the Flat Earth theory, but touching on anti-vaxx and QAnon conspiracies as well, Weill shows the reader the allure of conspiratorial thinking while attempting to point to a path away from fantasy and back to reality. Empathetic and urgent, Off the Edge is a must-read for folks seeking to understand our current age of polarization, misinformation, and institutional decay.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
