Hardcover. Zustand: Good. The Power was a deviant psychotherapy cult created in 1963 by a group of young men and women who abandoned their ordinary lifestyle for a world of adventure and spiritual experience. Brought together in a London therapy group, they ran off to Mexico to live on a ruined plantation where they discovered the great Gods of the Universe: Lucifer, Jehovah, Christ and Satan. After planting communities in six American cities, the cult became a center for psychic experimentation and stunning ritual performances. In the end, the cult's worship of Satan brought schism and disaster. This book is an analytical ethnography and psychohistory. Author Dr Bainbridge studied the cult as a participant observer, while engaged in sociological research. Candid interviews with many Powerites and private documents of the cult supplement direct observation. Copyright © University of California Press.…
