Publisher's Summary

The Instant Sunday Times Bestseller

Learn how to recognise and resist the daily attempts to control and manipulate your mind.

There is a war on for your mind. You may not notice, but you are surrounded by manipulators: advertisers, politicians, big tech, even the humble waiter who asks, ‘Still or sparkling?’

Free Your Mind is your field manual to surviving the information battlefield. In this indispensable book, Laura Dodsworth and Patrick Fagan draw on interviews with mind-control experts ranging from monks to magicians, infiltrate cults and forums to uncover their most deceptive techniques and expose the hidden tactics used to influence you, from social media to subliminal messages.

Learn how to recognise the nudges, dispel efforts to brainwash you and always question those who say the choice is yours. If you don’t control your mind, someone else will.

‘A sceptic’s charter. A thorough and entertaining guide for how to keep other people’s ulterior agendas out of your head.’ Lionel Shriver

‘We must all learn to spot the difference between useful and harmful persuasion. This book is a perfect place to start.’ Rory Sutherland

Profile Image for Carol M

OMG… I’ve been so naive.

Everyone should probably read this book… but it should come with a “graphic content” warning. Hearing about what others do to people for personal gain and political agendas is nauseating. Unbelievable and yet I saw Mall Cops tackling old ladies to the ground for not wearing a coffee filter on their faces. Unbelievably cruel.
