Containing many answers to the questions posed by the first 'Matrix' film, this book explores the frontiers of philosophy, technology and religious symbolism. It explores the enormous dilemmas the Wachowski brothers presented when they gave the movie its many layers of meaning - fusing myriad philosophical and religious themes with futuristic science and technology.

Review:
'the sheer brilliance of the Matrix films becomes clear.' -- Radio - MFM 92.6, 'The Green Room'

Taking The Red Pill acts as a wonder drug, a miracle cure for all the cognitive complications The Matrix generates. -- Dr. Marleen S. Barr, pioneering feminist science fiction scholar and author
From the Publisher:
I made an offer to publish this book after reading just one of its mind-blowing chapters. It was the most far reaching and profound book I had read in a long time, and I knew right away it was going to be a bestseller. Taking The Red Pill has sold translation rights all over the world - it generated quite a buzz at this year's London Book Fair, and kept the Summersdale stand busy with people desperate for review copies! Wide ranging scientific, religious and philosophical concepts introduced by The Matrix are explored in this very readable book. It's an intelligent read and thought-provoking (especially when 'proving' that statistically it's likely that we are living in a computer simulation!), but it's also a book that any fan of The Matrix movies can enjoy.
