Though the obviously tautological aspects of this suggestion
might be somewhat hilarious, Alice Bailey's "Glamour: A World
Problem" may be one of the better studies of delusion, both
individual and collective, that I've ever read. [Using a Bailey
book to discuss whether or not Bailey is deluded probably would
not be accepted as legitimate to anyone that already had an
opinion however].
Oh, and by the way, I remember hearing somewhere, sometime, from
someone, that Lucis Trust was simply named after Alice's daughter
Lucy. I have no idea, however, whether this is correct.
