Edward L. Bernays

With politics taking centre stage due to the US presidential election, the time is perfect for a reprint of this classic work from Edward Bernays, the father of public relations and political spin and the man who designed the ad campaign that got the United States involved in World War I. Written in 1928, this was the first book to discuss the manipulation of the masses and democracy by government spin and propaganda.

Propaganda

Crystallizing Public Opinion

From the author of the best-selling Propaganda, Crystallizing Public Opinion is the first book ever written about public relations.

The Engineering of Consent

Public relations as described in this volume is, among other things, society’s solution to problems of maladjustment that plague an overcomplex world. All of us, individuals or organizations, depend for survival and growth on adjustment to our publics. Publicist Edward L. Bernays offers here the kind of advice individuals and a variety of organizations sought from him on a professional basis during more than four decades. With such knowledge, every intelligent person can carry on his or her activities more effectively. This book provides know-why as well know-how. Bernays explains the underlying philosophy of public relations and the PR methods and practices to be applied in specific cases. He presents broad approaches and solutions as they were successfully carried out in his long professional career. Public relations is not publicity, press agentry, promotion, advertising, or a bag of tricks, but a continuing process of social integration. It is a field of adjusting private and public interest. Everyone engaged in any public activity, and every student of human behavior and society, will find in this book a challenge and opportunity to further both the public interest and their own interest.

First Line of Defense?

Morale

Propaganda is a unique and early work which focuses on the thesis that corporations and governmental institutions are working to control the masses. Author Edward L. Bernays, often considered to be the father of modern day public relations, envisions how both corporate and government bodies may use the media, science and even education to control what the public thinks and believes. This work has become more relevant over time as the emergence of the internet and partisan political television networks dominate in the coverage which is filtered and delivered to the masses. Propaganda is highly recommended for those who are interested in this concept and for those who enjoy the writings of author Edward L. Bernays.
