The Mind Managers

Name/Title

The Mind Managers

Secondary Title

How the master puppeteers of politics, advertising and mass communications pull the strings of public opinion.

Description

An account of the techniques of controlling and manipulating information in the U.S. by such institutions as the expanding national bureaucracy.

Context

Dr. Herbert Schiller was a media critic and sociologist who studied the systematic connections between mass media, technology, U.S. information policy and corporate interests. In this book, Schiller demonstrates how ominously these "mind managers" are at selling their ideas by deluging Americans with "information" often disguised as education for the public through the media.
