The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind (French: Psychologie des
Foules; literally: Psychology of Crowds) is a book authored by
Gustave Le Bon that was first published in 1895. In the book, Le
Bon claims that there are several characteristics of crowd
psychology: "impulsiveness, irritability, incapacity to reason, the
absence of judgement of the critical spirit, the exaggeration of
sentiments, and others..." Le Bon claimed "that an individual
immersed for some length of time in a crowd soon finds himself
either in consequence of magnetic influence given out by the crowd
or from some other cause of which we are ignorant in a special
state, which much resembles the state of fascination in which the
hypnotized individual finds himself in the hands of the
hypnotizer."
