Cults: Inside the World's Most Notorious Groups and Understanding the People Who Joined Them by Max Cutler

dark informative reflective fast-paced

5.0

This is an excellent anthology that covers several famous cults and their leaders, along with the a brief look at their leaders' motivations and social climates surrounding the cults in their prime (that's a terrible word to describe these deadly abusive situations, but I can't think of another word). Some of the narrators for the audiobook were not as easy to listen to as others, but the content of each cult's overview was informative & comprehensive. I would have liked a more in-depth look at the psychology of the leaders, but Cults is a good introduction for people interested in the phenomenon.
