Cults, Religion, and Violence
ISBN: 9780521668989 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

The authors conclude that they usually involve some combination of internal and external dynamics through which a new religious movement and society become polarized.
