Why Do Words Hurt So Much and Control You So Easily? Longtime radio host Roy Masters of the nationally syndicated "Advice Line" show has spent six decades advising people on their most intimate problems. Throughout his distinguished career, he has wondered: Why are humans susceptible to doing things that are immoral or irrational? In this new book, a sequel to Hypnotic States of Americans, Roy Masters explains why people who carry around resentments are open to verbal suggestion and manipulation. Evil regimes including Nazi Germany and Russia understood this and seized on it to commit gruesome atrocities without a revolt from their own people. Today, the American government is more oppressive than ever with mandates and regulations. Yet, people deify politicians to the point where dissent is considered sacrilege. Masters is committed to awakening those who cower before bullies and who must develop courage so as not to submit themselves to the will of tyrants. "If you are upset and resentful, if you live in a state of worry, self-doubt or anxiety, you are, to a greater or lesser degree-living life in a hypnotic state," writes Masters. "If you're frequently lost in daydreams and planning future conversations or rehashing long-past events, if you feel intimidated by other people or crave their approval, you are living your life in a hypnotic state." This book will show you how to free yourself.
