Excerpt of a book self-published by Shutes, an active participant in the Bay Area "pro-situ" scene. Presents an analysis of Jim Jones' Peoples Temple from a situationist perspective. "The essential error made everywhere concerning the phenomenon of the modern cult is to pretend as though it were a complete aberration, something out of this world and fundamentally in contradiction with the existing forms of society." One copy found on OCLC – in the Netherlands. [see Ford 213].
