In the public mind, unsurprisingly, the word 'cult' is most likely associated with something undesirable: scandals over a cult leader's sex life, religious distortion, kidnapping, bizarre teachings, murder, and mass suicide.
This book, written from personal experience, explores both the negative aspects and positive benefits of cult life, with particular emphasis on how personal needs are met within a cultic group.
"It is not only, as is often suggested, that followers are brainwashed, it is just as likely they are held hostage by their own needs."
"New Light on Cults" is available to purchase at amazon websites worldwide.
