About this listen

"Delusion and Mass Delusion" by Joost A. M. Meerloo is a seminal work that dissects the intricate psychology behind individual and collective delusions. Published in 1949, this insightful book delves into the mechanisms through which manipulation, propaganda, and coercion can sway individuals and entire societies into embracing false beliefs and irrational behaviors.

Drawing from extensive psychiatric expertise and historical examples, Meerloo explores the vulnerabilities of the human mind to external influences, shedding light on the profound impact of social dynamics on shaping beliefs and perceptions. With profound insights into the roots of mass hysteria, indoctrination, and ideological fanaticism, "Delusion and Mass Delusion" remains a timeless exploration of the complexities of human psychology and societal behavior.
