The Rape of the Mind by Joost Meerloo
The Human Condition by Hannah Arendt
The Crowd by Gustave LeBon
How Fear Works by Frank Furedi
Crystallizing Public Opinion by Bernays

These books pretty much explain the media over the last 20 years.

Matt bracken lead me to franklin horton, and I really enjoyed both of their work.

Horton is pretty easy reading but damn it's addicting.

Blood Meridian is good.

I’m commenting myself to read the Bible in its entirety before I read another secular book.
