The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind

Andrea's review

Feb 03, 2016

it was amazing

bookshelves: to-read

Although it was written 1895, it applies also to our time! It was first published with the title of 'la psychologie des foules' I think this title fits better! People in crowds act like 'foules'. We are influenced by media, opinions, society, rules, etc! To be open and independent and to escape from the standards of society is not an easy task! The examples that refers the author are referred to France history!
