Overview

Building on the work of writers such as Chomsky and Herman, David Edwards shows how the propaganda system distorts our understanding of political, personal and spiritual issues, ensuring that we remain passive, conformist, confused and uninformed - and willing to accept the irrational values of corporate consumerism. He argues that we need to master the arts of intellectual self-defence , in order to become able to challenge the necessary illusions of a system that subordinates people and planet to the drive for profit.
