Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The word cult pejoratively refers to a group whose beliefs or practices are reasonably considered strange. The word originally denoted a system of ritual practices. The narrower, derogatory sense of the word is a product of the 20th century, especially since the 1980s, and is considered subjective. It is also a result of the anti-cult movement which uses the word in reference to groups seen as authoritarian, exploitative and possibly dangerous. The word implies a group which is a minority in society. The book takes a look at the methods used by cults and religious movements to brainwash their members and individuals (or how they can be used in times of wars).
