I've always had a fascination about cults. Not in the "can't wait to join one" type way but in the "what makes them tick" kinda way. Even my senior thesis was on Hitler and his following (and I could argue that such things start as cults until so many people join that you get a movement...whether positive or negative). If you're looking for an intro to several big name cults, this is a good book to start. There were many I knew but learned more info on - Manson, Waco Davidians, Heaven's Gate, Jonestown, etc and there were some I had never heard of or knew very little about. The fact that most of those little-known cults occured outside the U.S.A. is no shocker as we're good at staying in our own little bubble (and seriously, some of these cults make Jonestown seem small in comparison). It's a good book to remind yourself that you're no better than those "quacks" who joined the cults, most who were intelligent, lonely, and wanted "family". A fascinating look into the world of cults. If you're more into podcasts, you can listen to the podcast by the same name and person for even more cults and cases!
