The book by Jacques Ellul, a philosopher, theologian, historian, and sociologist all in one, is dedicated to propaganda. He analyzed the processes related to propaganda in modern society and proved that society is already incapacitated without it. He detailed how propaganda influences the structure of public opinion and its impact on the human psyche, explained why a democratic society ceases to be democratic when those in power begin to manipulate society through propaganda. Jacques Ellul's research will be of interest to historians and sociologists as it is dedicated to the analysis of a phenomenon in which we all involuntarily participate. Politicians and propagandists should take it as a textbook to learn how to deceive people without them realizing it, and the average person should read it to try not to be deceived. The first edition of "Propaganda" was in 1962, but its relevance is not in doubt, as when reading it, one gets the feeling that the author is describing events of our days.
