Edward Bernays - Marketing for Evil (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798294038663)

The Puppet Master - Edward Bernays
How the Father of Public Relations Manipulated the World-and What That Means for Our Future

What if the techniques used to sell soap and cigarettes were also used to sell wars, policies, presidents, and ideologies?
What if your thoughts, habits, and choices weren't really your own?

In this chilling and deeply researched exposé, Edward Bernays - Marketing for Evil reveals how one man's ideas laid the foundation for mass manipulation-shaping the modern world through advertising, propaganda, political spin, and psychological control. Edward Bernays, the so-called "Father of Public Relations," didn't just change how products were sold-he changed how people think.

This book tracks the sinister evolution of his techniques from their early 20th-century roots to their disturbing application in today's digital world. From government disinformation to algorithmic mind control, from influencer marketing to deepfake-driven reality distortion, Bernays' influence is everywhere-and more dangerous than ever.

You'll uncover:
- The origins of modern propaganda
- Real-world campaigns that exploited public fears and desires
- How governments, corporations, and media continue to manipulate us
- The dark future of surveillance marketing, AI nudging, and social engineering
- How we can resist the systems designed to control us

Edward Bernays - Marketing for Evil is both a warning and a call to arms. If we don't reclaim our minds, someone else will control them for us.
