The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind

The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind is a book written by Gustave LeBon that explores the psychology of crowds and the impact they have on individuals. The book examines the behavior of crowds, including their tendency towards irrationality, suggestibility, and violence. LeBon argues that the collective mind of a crowd is very different from the individual minds of its members, and that this difference can lead to dangerous and destructive behavior. The book also explores the role of leaders in shaping the behavior of crowds, and the ways in which propaganda and other forms of mass communication can be used to manipulate them. Overall, The Crowd is a seminal work in the field of social psychology and remains relevant today as a study of the power and potential dangers of group dynamics.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
