Yes! I agree that the book dives deep. It's certainly not a weekend beach read, but it is important.Scerakor wrote:I think that this is an amazing and important topic for a book and it looks like the author did a great job presenting it. Having sampled the first few pages, I definitely see where you are coming from when you say that the content is quite deep. Not only is the book written at a high level intellectually, it hits on some extremely touchy/sensitive subjects. Thank you for the review.

Thank you!mindyg123 wrote:Wonderful review. Exploring the psychology of cults and false messiahs and the Holocaust sounds pretty heavy. Thanks for writing this and congrats on being BOTD.
I too am happy to see this as BOTD. I think it deserves a wide exposure and hopefully people will pick this up who might not have otherwise.

There is too much rambling, made me feel as though I had to have background knowledge of what is being illustrated. Lol. The word ,"immediacy"
Was so over used for me, that I got put off.
I did like though the view on Transcendence.
"Use of choices available to her"
Powerful indeed. I'm taking that into my life.
Yes , this book is definitely not for me, too much referencing to people I don't know..hahahah not that I should know them.
The Impingings, that really had me thinking, how pressure to conform is a real factor, how it impacts our individuality. Hmmmm.
He writes well, very intelligent writer..

The cover throws me a little. Red and yellow are colors of of hunger, like McDonald's. The book doesn't seem to match the cover.
