Review title: More sex than power
Product review: Wilson's initial statement that the misguided figures he discusses are driven by both sex and power is not followed through in the book which mainly emphasises the sexual adventures of the cult figures. This gets tedious and finally becomes a superficial account of their influence. The book becomes a numbing compendium of weird figures and their hateful habits with little cohesive ideas on the dynamics of these groups other than some basic observations. There is nothing much new in here from Wilson who has been plowing the same field for many years. He writes well and the antics of some of the gurus are amazing but on the whole it's a shallow piece that diminishes Wilson's work.
