Happy summer, everybody!

I’m working on a few new projects during the break.  A new book is in the works, and I’ll post news about this and other projects as it becomes available.

Also, I’m presently booking speaking engagements for the fall, to be based on my conspiracy theory and Vietnam War film books.  It was great to meet so many interesting people this spring, and I’m looking forward to making the rounds again soon.  If you’re interested in scheduling a talk at your local  institution, please send me an email.

As always, thanks for your interest and questions.  Please let me know if you think I can be of service to you!

    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.
