In this clear and vivid book, Gustave Le Bon throws light on the unconscious irrational workings of group thought and mass emotion as he places crowd ideology in opposition to free-thinking and independent minded individuals.The ideas le Bon explores in this book are extremely relevant to today's society and were of pivotal importance in the early years of group psychology. Applications include financial market behaviour and political delusions. The Sparkling Books edition has been annotated and edited based on the 1907 Alcan edition and previous translations.

Crowd has their own personality.
Written 2 centuries ago, but the basis apply today. One of the best books ever written on crowd behavior.

Theoretical written with convoluted language
It's very much theoretical written with convoluted language making it not easy to understand. I wish it had more examples too.

great thinking for its time
This was an outstanding book. however, the author could not have foreseen the mind control that TV has exerted over the masses in the last 50-60 years. But I do believe as Le Bon did that there is a racial soul and in many people, this soul still lives regardless of the brainwashing effects of the TV. Somehow, that buried soul will emerge again in the future of the Nordic races.

A simple outline of crowd mentality
Basic ideas that were proven by Hitler and Mussolini who read this book. Just look around and you will see these principles in action.
