The author, who had written tech books, got sucked into an LA-based cult. When an old friend suggested he try antidepressants, he woke up and got the fuck out. When he later fell sick, the cult sued him over the book and got the copyright to it.
It's not a perfect book, because the author was clearly still struggling to come to terms with his experience. But I think that makes it even more interesting.
