Overall, Cults and Personality is a good source of information for those who would try to
understand how people can apparently be so susceptible to cult recruitment. It would also be
helpful to those professionals called in as counselors or therapists after someone leaves a cult,
or to beginning researchers who want an organized introduction and a good reference list
from which to begin their work. One “small” point is omitted here, however, as it seems to be
generally in what ways does the ex-member explain the time spent in the cult, especially
when it was months or years, to a potential employer”
