    When Prophecy Fails by Leon Festinger, Henry Riecken, and Stanley Schaffer.
    A published field study of a 1950’s doomsday cult and what happens when the date they’ve set for the apocalypse passes and nothing happens. Festinger coined the term “cognitive dissonance” to describe the mental conflict felt by the various members. The mental gymnastics some of them enact to maintain their faith are fascinating to me.

    The latter will be worth the time invested, IMO.
