In fact, the behaviors, social pressures, and authoritarian structures that create cults exist to a greater or lesser extent in every human relationship and every human group. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the first in-depth research of its kind, the author interviewed sixty-five people who were born in or grew up in thirty-nine different cultic groups spanning more than a dozen countries. What's especially interesting about these individuals is that they each left the cult on their own, without outside help or internal support. In \u003ci\u003eEscaping Utopia: Growing Up in a Cult, Getting Out, and Starting Over\u003c\/i\u003e, the authors craft Lalich's original and groundbreaking research into an accessible and engaging book, the first of its kind focusing on this particular population. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Janja Lalich, Karla McLaren\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138239747\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138239746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.10w x 0.50d","brand":"Janja Lalich","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947801182463,"sku":"9781138239746","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7a07c123-7116-40e9-af4f-ec20af41cb65.jpg?v=1681520880","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/escaping-utopia-janja-lalich-9781138239746","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
