Though not focusing on religious zealots, Batchelor (journalism and mass communication, Kent State U.) applies "cult" in its connotation of someone or something that has a deeply-held or enduring popular following. Volume 1, which includes a timeline since 1900, presents essays analyzing the attraction of cult figures, themes, technology, and genre related to film (e.g., Star Wars) and television (e.g., Oprah, serial killers, reality TV shows). Focusing on literature and music, volume 2 examines the attachment fans have for their favorite pop artists, especially before they are discovered by mainstream culture. In volume 3, insights are offered on "everyday cults" in sports, places, event, the Internet, and the cult industry itself. The volumes include reference material and are individually indexed.
