Summary

From the Sunday Times best-selling author of Elephants on Acid comes a collection of the wackiest theories from science and history.

What if we’re living inside a black hole? What if we’ve already found extraterrestrial life? What if the dinosaurs died in a nuclear war? What if Jesus Christ was actually a mushroom?

In Psychedelic Apes, best-selling author Alex Boese will delve into the curious scientific subculture of weird theories. Thoroughly bizarre and contrary to the established norm, these ideas are often vehemently rejected by the intellectual community.

From the creation of the universe to the evolution of humans, the birth of civilisation right through to our more recent past, Psychedelic Apes explores some of the craziest ideas from science and history and shows that, sometimes, even the weirdest theories may be proved true.

Brilliant book would recommend this

This book is brilliant . The theories talked about are sometimes quite wild but very entertaining , it is well written and researched and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the universe and alternative quirky theories.
I listened to the audio version of this and the narrator was very good , he kept it up beat interesting through his tone .

Very nuanced

Great overview of some of the more extreme theories out there. The author does a good job of putting it all together with an unbiased view.
