Techniques of Persuasion: From Propaganda to Brainwashing by J.A.C. Brown is a commanding psychological study that chronicles the dark art of mass influence — from the subtle mechanics of advertising and political rhetoric to the chilling extremes of coercive brainwashing. Brown presents a sweeping and unflinching analysis of how governments, ideologues, and institutions have systematically manipulated human belief, behaviour, and identity throughout the modern era, drawing on a rich body of case studies from totalitarian regimes, wartime propaganda machines, and cult psychology.\n\nBrown writes with the precision of a scientist and the clarity of a gifted communicator, making complex psychological theory accessible without sacrificing intellectual rigour. The work stands as a landmark in popular psychology and political science, arguing that no individual is truly immune to the forces of persuasion — a thesis as unsettling today as when it was first published. Part warning, part instruction manual for the critically minded, this Pelican Original leaves the reader with one urgent, haunting question: who is really in control of what you think?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49216206995675,"sku":"2026200017534-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/dfa8f3a0-967a-4f8e-8326-fb2df62f1e6a.png?v=1788405333","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200017534-secondhand-techniques-of-persuasion-from-propaganda-to-brainwashing","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
