Without a Shot Indeed: Inducing Compliance to Tyranny Through Conditioning and Persuasion - Paperback

by David Risselada (Author)

Nikita Khrushchev proudly proclaimed the United States would one day awaken as a full-blown communist country. Americans are gullible, he said, the United States will be defeated without firing a shot. What did he mean by this? This book will attempt to answer this question by examining the social sciences used to study our behavior for the purpose of manipulating and changing it. The theories of B.F. Skinner, Cass Sunstein and others will be looked at along with scientific models from which our behavior is examined. Persuasive communication strategies designed to gain compliance will also be explored along with what is understood about the human reaction to fear. Without a Shot Indeed: Inducing Compliance to Tyranny will expose the reader to the reality that our behaviors, beliefs and attitudes are constantly under the microscope and the target of those seeking to change our nation.
