This reader brings together the voices of historians, sociologists, and psychologists of religion to address these key questions about new religious movements. - Looks at theoretical explanations for cults, why people join and what happens when they do.
- Brings together the best work on cults by sociologists, historians, and psychologists of religion.
- A broad-ranging, balanced and clearly organized collection of readings.
- Includes coverage of topical issues, such as the 'brainwashing' controversy, and cults in cyberspace.
