Sinossi

“Hidden Tunnels” unearths the fascinating world of subterranean structures, revealing how tunnels and underground networks have shaped societies throughout history. This exploration highlights human ingenuity in creating concealed spaces for various purposes, from ancient aqueducts to modern-day escape routes.

 
Intriguingly, many ancient civilizations utilized tunnels not only for practical needs like water management but also as vital defensive fortifications. The book argues that the recurring presence of these hidden passageways across cultures underscores a fundamental human drive for survival, security, and the preservation of power.

 
The book examines specific case studies from different eras and locations, such as the Cu Chi tunnels used during the Vietnam War and the elaborate water systems of ancient Rome. Each example illustrates the purpose, construction methods, and societal impact of these underground networks.

 
By synthesizing these diverse examples, “Hidden Tunnels” identifies recurring patterns and universal themes, exploring the psychological and social factors that drive the creation and use of hidden tunnels. It progresses from introducing the concept of subterranean passages to analyzing specific historical instances and finally synthesizing overarching patterns.

    From psychologist, researcher, and horror film enthusiast Brian A. Sharpless comes Monsters on the Couch, an exploration into the real-life psychological disorders behind famous horror movies. Accounts of clinical syndromes every bit as dramatic as those on the silver screen are juxtaposed with fascinating forays into the science and folklore behind our favorite movie monsters. 
     
     
     
    Horror fans may be obsessed with vampires, werewolves, zombies, and the human replacements from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, but even many medical professionals may not know about the corresponding conditions of Renfield's syndrome, clinical lycanthropy, Cotard's syndrome, and Capgras syndrome. 
     
     
     
    Some of these disorders are surprisingly common in the general population. For instance, a number of people experience isolated sleep paralysis, a disorder implicated in ghost and alien abduction beliefs. Fascinations with sleep paralysis have led to its own brimming subgenre of horror. 
     
     
     
    As these tales unfold, listeners not only learn state-of-the-art psychological science but also gain a better understanding of history, folklore, and how Hollywood often—but not always—gets it wrong when tackling these complex topics.
