These are just a FEW of the books that we recommend as interesting reading that will give you some interesting food for thought.  Some of these are related to conspiracy theories in general, some are just history books that talk about the stuff we discuss on the show, and some are books that have lots of good information but that we don't necessarily believe everything they say.  Remember, it is important to be a discerning reader and NOT to believe everything someone tells you!  All of these books should be available on Amazon.com.
