Forty-one years after the gruesome murders at Roman Polanski's home, questions remain unanswered about the man Rolling Stone Magazine describes as the most dangerous man alive. In this new, authorized account, author and psychiatric specialist Marlin Marynick conducts a detailed exploration of both the man and the myth, through the personal relationship he established and cultivated with Manson himself. Marynick communicated with Manson extensively over a three year period as part of his research for the book. He met Manson in prison on multiple occasions and they talk by phone regularly. The results are shocking. Marynick provides unique and never-before-revealed insight into the mind and soul of the man who continues to attract new followers even today. He also uncovers that Roman Polanski knows more about what happened. Polanski is not as innocent as he was made out to be. Through a direct and personal approach, Marynick examines the magnitude of Manson's influence through in-depth interviews with Manson's closest friends and associates, including a deep, insider analysis of Manson's life in prison, and conversations with this American figure about his present ideas, beliefs, and relationships. Featuring a foreword written by Charles Manson himself, Charles Manson Now answers major questions pertaining to the murders perpetrated by the Manson Family and the psychiatric status of its leader. Is Charles Manson ready to be released from prison? Does he still present a public threat? Or has he converted, as he proclaims, to a peaceful 'green' philosophy with his mission statement: ATWA - Air, Trees, Water, Animals . . .? Media ><
