A seminal work on how public opinion is created and shaped, Edward
Bernays's 1923 classic "Crystallizing Public Opinion" set down the
principles that corporations and government have used to influence
public attitudes over the past century.
A primer on the then new profession of "public relations counsel,"
"Crystallizing" elucidates the "instruments and techniques" that PR
professionals use to mold public opinion on behalf of their
client's interests. By adapting the ideas that Bernays put forth in
this book, governments and advertisers have been able to "regiment
the mind like the military regiments the body."
The first ever book ever written about the public relations
industry, this all-new edition of "Crystallizing Public Opinion"
features an introduction by Stuart Ewen, author of "PR A Social
History of Spin, All Consuming Images: On the Politics of Style in
Contemporary Culture," and "Captains of Consciousness: Advertising
and the Social Roots of the Consumer Culture.
