The Power of Fear: To Save and Betray

(Amazon) Bickham examines the balance between those vital fears essential for survival and our most exaggerated and spurious fears. He shows how the corporate media, mass merchandisers, governments, and religious entities promulgate these contrived fears in order to persuade, intimidate, and subjugate their targeted populations. Bickham holds degrees in psychology and a Ph.D. in English literature. He has taught at the University of Idaho, the University of Indiana, and the University of New Mexico. This is his first book.
