Both books have come about as part of large collaborative projects funded by the AHRC.
, published by Routledge, was co-authored by Prof Knight and Clare Birchall, reader in contemporary culture at King鈥檚 College London.
The book analyses 鈥榯he emergence and development of conspiracy theories鈥� that bubbled up in the pandemic, with particular focus on those theories that were rife in the UK and US in particular.
The second publication Prof Knight has co-authored is Chicago-published , which is an examination of how investment advice as a genre grew in the UK and US and how it manifested across various media.
