What is Among the truthers : a journey through the cognitive underworld of American life about?

From 9/11 conspiracy theorists, and UFO obsessives, to the cult of Ayn Rand and Birther crusaders, America is suffering from an explosion in post-rationalist ideological movements. In Among the Truthers , journalist Jonathan Kay offers a thoughtful and sobering look at how social networking, and Web-based video sharing, have engendered a flourishing of new conspiracism. Kay details the sociological profiles of ten brands of modern conspiracists - the Failed Historian,the Mid-Life Crack-Up, the Damaged Survivor, the Campus Revolutionary, the Stoner, the Clinical Case, the Puzzle Solver, the Christian Doomsayer, the Cosmic Voyager, and the Egomaniac - in a compelling exploration of Americas departure from reason, and what it means for the very future of rational discourse, as the nation steps further into the 21st century.
