Publisher's Synopsis

In this classic study of the psychology of crowds, Lee explores the social and cultural dynamics of group behavior, focusing on the ways in which individuals lose their sense of self and identity when they become part of a larger collective. Drawing on examples from history, politics, and religion, Lee examines the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual aspects of crowd phenomena, and offers insights into the power and potential of collective action for both good and evil.
