    OCTOBER 2008 (Westport, CT) -- Conspiracy Theory in Film, Television, and Politics was recently released by Praeger Publishers. The book, written by Gordon B. Arnold, surveys the development of the conspiracy-theory theme on screen since the early days of the cold war. The widespread growth of conspiracy-theory thinking is one of the most startling developments in American popular culture and politics. Hollywood played an important part in this story, issuing scores of movies and TV shows that often mirrored the mood of real-life politics and events.
