Unidentified: Our Obsession with the Unexplained

People in the 21st century have access to more scientific knowledge than any generation ever before, but it doesn't lead to more rational thinking. It seems there are more vaccine deniers, flat earthers, alien believers, and bigfoot hunters than ever before. Perhaps it's true, The Unidentified postulates, that the more complete our understanding is, the more we crave the supernatural. For those who find that science strips wonder from the world, it's no doubt that they turn to ghosts, angels, and even Atlanteans as a sort of mental sop of the inexplicable. Read about many such people here, from those with pedestrian conspiracy theories such as the Illuminati secretly rule the world to those with more exotic ideas, such as those who believe that Mt. Shasta hides the ancient race of Lemurians.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
