"What You Don't Know Can Kill You" was UPDATED OCTOBER 2020: NEW CHARLES MANSON CHAPTER with an analysis of his mind programming techniques. How did Manson turn middle class girls into "robots" who would kill for him?

Are you being hypnotized without your knowledge or consent?

In "What You Don't Know Can Kill You" we'll explore the use of specific mind control techniques that have been used on mass audiences without them perceiving it. These tactics have been employed by such notorious figures as Adolf Hitler, Charles Manson, Jim Jones, and David Koresh, among many others. We all know what they did, but how did they do it?

The answer to this question is not about politics or history; rather it lies in the wild, deep forest of mind programming.

And now, Donald Trump and ISIS are using conversion, persuasion and hypnosis techniques to program their followers. It's imperative that the public learns to recognize them. The good news is, it's easier than you might think.

"What You Don't Know Can Kill You" offers parents and teachers specific insight into ISIS recruitment strategies aimed at young Americans, as well as resources for further reading. This knowledge will make it easier to identify youth in trouble and take steps to assist them before it's too late.

A short brain-stormed list of deprogramming strategies is also included.

Could Donald Trump really shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters? Why is he not held to the same standards as other politicians?

5 STAR REVIEW: READER'S FAVORITE:

"As children grow, they adopt their view of the world from their surroundings. By the time we reach adulthood, most of us learn to form our own opinions but are these factual or accurate? In What You Don't Know Can Kill You by Meghan Hansen, we learn the good and bad sides of how the human mind can be persuaded, coerced and sometimes even hypnotized to hold certain beliefs. Sometimes for good but also to incite hatred and bias. These methods of mind control have been used throughout history, but how did these notorious dictators manage to brainwash others to perform unthinkable actions? Are there certain types of people that are more prone to becoming victims of mind control? The strategies used by Hitler, Jim Jones, David Koresh, Donald Trump, and even ISIS are broken down and examined for any similarities. We discover if they shared any personality traits or patterns of behavior, so we might spot the warnings signs for ourselves and not become one more victim in the history books of dictatorship. Joseph Goebbels: "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

"What You Don't Know Can Kill You by Meghan Hansen is a spine-chilling read and a well-researched look into the psyche of the human mind. I think many of us would not believe we are susceptible to mind control, but it is shocking to learn the tactics used throughout history to gain such horrendous results. The similarities of behavior, personality traits and the wording of certain speeches are a must-read for anyone. I was especially moved by the speech given by Jim Jones. This is an extremely detailed in-depth examination of the methods used to manipulate people. The revelations are not only a warning not to take any information at face value but also an invaluable insight into mind control in general. The references for further reading were a great addition.

"The subject matter of this book will stay with me for a long time. I think it is impossible not to question your belief system once you have read this. A book that will hopefully bring people closer together and not divide certain groups in our society because of malicious intentions."

<b>A chilling documentary history of the most notorious cults of the past two thousand years, from the Celtic druids whose ritual sacrifices inspired the folk horror film <i>The Wicker Man </i>all the way up to the Peoples Temple and Heaven's Gate <p/>A Penguin Classic</b> <p/>The word "cult" conjures images of people in thrall to a charismatic leader who extracts obedience through lies and threats, and of apocalyptic prophecies, ritual sacrifices, sexual perversion, and mass suicide. <i>The Penguin Book of Cults </i>charts the history of our fear of the religious other: the arrest and public execution of thousands of members of an ancient Roman cult devoted to Bacchus, the god of wine&#x3b; the burning alive of victims in giant wicker effigies as an offering to Celtic gods&#x3b; the nocturnal orgies, murder of children, and demon worship of medieval heretics&#x3b; a church of "human vampires" in nineteenth-century Kansas City&#x3b; moral panics over the hypnotic powers of yoga&#x3b; and mass casualty events like the sarin nerve gas attack on the Tokyo subway system by the doomsday cult Aum Shinrikyo. <p/>Bringing to light little-known sources such as a "death tape" of Jonestown's final hour, when Jim Jones led more than 900 of his followers to drink poison, and a minute-by-minute log of the FBI's final assault on the Branch Davidian headquarters, and including accounts of drinking the blood of sacrificed cats, theories that we are living inside a hollow earth, and reports that space brothers from Venus are coming to redeem us from the threat of nuclear war, this volume opens a fascinating window into cults and why some of them have ended in spectacular violence. <p/>Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
