The New Believers by David V Barrett
The membership of a wide range of religious and other movements is ever growing, causing mixed reactions from non-members, families of members and the media. This book is a response to this, offering a source of information about a whole range of alternative belief systems, non-mainstream religions, cults and sects. Issues including brainwashing, the difficulties of leaving movements and "cults that kill" are explored.
