My favorite nonfiction books about cults, scams, and my life (2005)

Alien is the same imho, hard to believe two of the most damaging cults do have this behavior. The game "Cult of the Lamb" is a great book in this genre. Markopolos went to the SEC with proof, multiple times, and each time the SEC blew him off.

If you haven't read it already, Fads and Fallacies by Martin Gardner is a great way to learn about cults :). This is the first time I've felt, and I use the word for sympathy, talk about the really bad ones. Start with Nebraska and work back from there. Sympathy farmer.
