Jesse Walker, the Reason magazine books editor who sometimes pops up in the mentions and the comments on this blog, is the author of two books, Rebels on the Air: An Alternative History of Radio in America, a history of pirate radio, and The United States of Paranoia: A Conspiracy Theory, a history of conspiracy theories in the U.S. I like the radio book (I believe I mentioned my interest in radio yesterday) but the conspiracy book, which I highly recommend, is the one many RAW fans would enjoy (there is chapter on RAW, Discordianism, etc., and how writers such as RAW played with conspiracy theories.)
Anyway, I wanted to pass on that the Kindle for Jesse's book is on sale for about $4, for a "limited time." The book got a lot of good reviews, so I am apparently not the only one who liked it. As I understand it, the latest Kindle version is updated with additional material from the original hardcover. I assume that most people know you don't need a Kindle device to read Kindle books, just a Kindle app on your phone.
