Beyond mental slavery is now published (finally). It is available at Amazon.com (just use that link), and can be ordered at your local bookstore as well. You can also read excerpts from the book at a site I set up just for that purpose. My newest site is called, naturally enough, Beyond Mental Slavery .com (and that link takes you there). What is the book about? Here’s a short description:

Are You a Mind Slave?

We like to think we control our minds. Beyond Mental Slavery demonstrates just how often our minds are actually controlling us. We are under the influence of ideas that are not really ours, biases we’re not fully aware of, and programs that cause us to react in ways that have nothing to do with our conscious goals or desires – and may even sabotage them. Research, stories and examples that the reader can verify from experience, are used throughout the book to demonstrate just how easy it is to be ordered around and misguided by various thought processes – by the same mind we believe we direct for our own purposes.

Corrective actions or “escape plans” are laid out at the end of each chapter. Thus, after learning about the problems inherent in virtually all thinking and decision making, the reader then learns how to escape many of the limitations these impose, and so how to think more clearly and usefully.
