Succinct, factual, and menacingly interesting.

Really good but didn't include Scientology which I thought was a massive oversight since it's like the main cult that everyone knows. Maybe they think it's so big now it's classed as a religion?
Anyway, this was a good little introduction to a lot of the main cults.
