About This Item
London: Virgin Books, 1992. Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), small mark edges, minor edgewear jacket. 324 pp. Guy Arnold probes pressing moral issues facing contemporary British society: the potent force of brainwashing. He illustrates his arguments with new information on headline events, among them the government and media treatment of the Gulf War (1990s), and the Spycatcher and Rushdie affairs. These provide us some chilling and prescient lessons for the future. We get the governments and institutions we deserve, and no brainwashing can be effective without collusion, implicit or otherwise, of the brainwashed.
