5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom from Cult Thinking, March 4, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Under the Influence: The Destructive Effects of Group Dynamics (Hardcover)
John D. Goldhammer shows great insight into the ownership of your thinking by organizations, whether it's the organization whose employee you are, or another organization that wants you to behave in a certain way to meet its standards for appearance and control. Excellent reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars Overall good book about the invisible power of group-think and herd behavior, July 2, 2010
This review is from: Under the Influence: The Destructive Effects of Group Dynamics (Hardcover)
This book is *not* about AA, but its description and explanation of insidious group dynamics very much reminded me of every AA meeting I have ever attended. The only thing that I did not like about this book was that occasionally the author inserted some of his poems... That seemed bizarre and totally out of place to me, but it was easy to just skip them, and this was a minor flaw in an otherwise very enlightening book about the often invisible but enormously powerful dynamics of group-think and herd behavior.
