paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Baltimore. 2023. October 2023. Johns Hopkins University Press. 1st Johns Hopkins University Press Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9781421448107. 39 halftones, 1 line drawing. October 2023. paperback. keywords: Religion Cults. DESCRIPTION - On a fall… day in 1978, Los Angeles attorney Paul Morantz reached into his mailbox to collect his mail and was nearly killed. He was bitten by the four-foot-long rattlesnake that had been put there by members of a cultlike group called Synanon. Chuck Dedericha former Alcoholics Anonymous member who coined the phrase Today is the first day of the rest of your lifeestablished Synanon as an innovative drug rehabilitation center near the Santa Monica beach in 1958. Synanon quickly evolved into an experimental commune and religion that attracted thousands of members and was strongly committed to social justice and progressive education. Twenty years later, when Dederich was arrested for the Morantz attack, Synanon had devolved into a paranoid community that followed its egomaniacal leader in whatever direction he chose to take. Based on extensive primary sources and interviews with former members,The Rise and Fall of Synanonexplores how the group arose in the context of American social, political, and economic trends. Historian Rod Janzen argues that Synanon's downfall resulted from members giving too much power to Synanon's charismatic founder. The subject of a new documentary and podcast, this community serves as a mesmerizing case study of how alternative societies can change over time and how the general public's reactions to such societies can shift from tolerance to fear and opposition. inventory #47797.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Will there be any place in the Universe with similar characteristics to Earth Utopia is an enigmatic novel in which a love story is mixed with the end of the world derived from global warming.Aurora Gabriela and Adrián Manu, star in the…story of a couple of scientists devoted to the defense of the planet until the last minute of their existence, however, they finally decide to save themselves alone, when they find a terrible indifference of humanity.In that tenor, the couple decides to face the challenge of teleporting to a new Earth, where they can consolidate their love and preserve humanity.The novel puts on the table for debate other issues such as global warming, the Theory of Energy, quantum physics, collective consciousness and teleportation itself observed by the author in a very sui generis way.In the end, Utopia will leave you with the feeling that even in the apocalypse you can bet on love, on the creation of a family, but you can also add more misfortunes to the one you are living.The denouement is usually unexpected, a hallmark of Veracruz writer Juan Manuel Rodríguez Caamaño.
