Where can I learn more about the "Paul is dead" controversy?

By Robert Fontenot, About.com

Question: Where can I learn more about the "Paul is dead" controversy?
Answer: R. Gary Patterson's classic The Walrus Was Paul and Andru J. Reeve's 2004 book Turn Me On, Dead Man are the best in-print analysis of the rumor, its history, and its clues. But PID is an audiovisual phenomenon, and there are several presentations you can order or see in person: Who Buried Paul?, Who Buried Paul McCartney?, and Doctor Lev's Details, Secrets, & Theories of the Beatles Paul-Is-Dead Mystery. The main online proponent of the Paul is Dead theory is The King Is Naked!; the main site that attempts to debunk the theory is called, simply, Paul Is Not Dead.
