Summary
Quotes
« Collective psychoses" or "affective contagions", always observed in small groups, are most often triggered by fear, in a tense or anxious situation, usually at night, but not in broad daylight, at midday, on a plain like the Cova da Iria, where photos taken before and during the miracle show no particular trance or excitement. »
Michel-Yves Bolloré, Olivier Bonnassies, God, science, evidence: the dawn of a revolution, p.485
