THE MANIPULATED MIND
Brainwashing, Conditioning and Indoctrination
by Denise Winn
This is the single finest book we have ever seen on "brainwashing." Ever since
American prisoners of war in Korea suddenly switched sides to the Communist
cause, the concept of brainwashing has continued to fascinate and confuse.
Is it really possible to force any thinking person to act in a way completely
alien to his character? What makes so-called brainwashing so different
from the equally insidious effects of indoc-trination and conditioning,
or even advertising and education?
Research findings from psychology show that brainwashing is not a special
subversive technique; it is the clever manipulation of unrealized influences
that operate in all our lives. This book, by breaking down so-called brainwashing
to its individual elements, shows how social conditioning, need for approval,
emotional dependency and much else that we are unaware of, prevent us from
being as self-directed as we think; and conversely, which human traits
make us the least susceptible to subtle influence.
An important book - the best available on the subject. We are all "brainwashed"
every day and this book can help you to recognize the ways and protect
yourself. Highly recommended.
