Annotation Based on interviews, observation, and surveys, this study examines The Family's beliefs, practices, and social structure, looking at how it connects sex and spirituality, incorporates "channeling," and anticipates the Endtime. It also considers efforts by anti-cult zealots and government authorities to seize and forcibly deprogram members of the group, especially children. Bainbridge is associated with the National Science Foundation. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
