We think of cults as bizarre, inexplicable, or otherworldly places that only strange people inhabit, but cults and other abusive and highdemand groups (and relationships) are actually quite commonplace. In fact, the behaviors, social pressures, and authoritarian structures that create cults exist to a greater or lesser extent in every human relationship and every human group.In the first indepth research of its kind, the author interviewed sixtyfive people who were born in or grew up in thirtynine different cultic groups spanning more than a dozen countries. Whats especially interesting about these individuals is that they each left the cult on their own, without outside help or internal support. In Escaping Utopia: Growing Up in a Cult, Getting Out, and Starting Over, the authors craft Lalichs original and groundbreaking research into an accessible and engaging book, the first of its kind focusing on this particular population.
