Has anyone read Trance: Formation of America?
I just went to Amazon and it seems both Mark Philip and Cathy O'Brien have each written one? Which one is better?

1. It looks to me like the O'Brien book is an errorneous listing
Since there's only 1 copy available and no real history on the book, whereas the listing using Mark Philip looks like the real thing.

Apparantly there is actually only 1 book by that title and both are the authors - here's the books website

2. Did I ask you that?
Why can't anyone on DU ever answer the question that is posed?

3. Because we just can't resist our "trying to be helpful" genes

4. I read part of Cathy O'Brien's version
I thought it was the only one. Mark Philip may have been a co-author.

Anyway, I read it before it went to the publisher. She was hawking it amongst the New Age and Mind Control interest groups.

She's a good writer, but it's very difficult to accept what she says is reality. According to her, nearly every politician in America is an active sadomasochist-pedophile-fiend Half, maybe, but certainly not all of them! :)

They (allegedly) scour the world for the most attractive prospective child-sexpots and turn them into sex slaves for their perverted desires.

It was tough for me to read it all, because I had no confidence in her credibility. I don't doubt that she suffered some intense traumata, but her narrative is meant to be testimony, and I think it fails there.
