A harrowing account of brainwashing's pervasive role in the 20th and 21st centuries

This gripping book traces the evolution of brainwashing from its beginnings in torture and religious conversion into the age of neuroscience and social media. When Pavlov introduced scientific approaches, his research was enthusiastically supported by Lenin and Stalin, setting the stage for major breakthroughs in tools for social, political, and religious control.

Tracing these developments through many of the past century's major conflagrations, Dimsdale narrates how when World War II erupted, governments secretly raced to develop drugs for interrogation. Brainwashing returned to the spotlight during the Cold War in the hands of the North Koreans and Chinese. In response, a huge Manhattan Project of the Mind was established to study memory obliteration, indoctrination during sleep, and hallucinogens. Cults used the techniques, as well. Nobel laureates, university academics, intelligence operatives, criminals, and clerics all populate this shattering and dark story - one that hasn't yet ended.

I would recommend this book to those interested in “brainwashing” or coercive persuasion as it eloquently examines the history, studies and cases. Fascinating insights into cases such as the Stockholm bank robbery which birthed the Stockholm syndrome. The organised mass suicides committed by the Jones town community in Guyana and Heavens gate in the USA

Fascinating insights

It's a very intriguing topic, and well illustrated with stories and case studies. The narrator has a pleasant voice and reads in a lively way without being overly dramatic.

Highly interesting and well read
