520    Len Oakes explores the phenomenon of cult leaders. He 
       examines the psychology of charisma and proposes his own 
       theory of the five-stage life cycle of the two types of 
       prophets: the messianic and charismatic. Often 
       characterized by isolation, autonomy, grandiosity, and 
       manipulativeness, Oakes maintains that the cult leader has
       a narcissistic personality. This individual possesses a 
       heightened empathy, confidence, and memory, as well as 
       autonomy and detachment - while appearing disquietingly 
       normal most of the time. The author has interviewed 
       several leaders whom, he feels, exemplify the charismatic 
       personality. He also provides insight into the behavior 
       and personality of many well-known cult leaders such as 
       Jim Jones, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, L. Ron Hubbard, Werner 
       Erhard, Kathryn Kuhlman, and J.H. Noyes. 
520 8  For eleven years, Oakes was a member of a charismatic 
       communal group, during which time he simultaneously 
       undertook his research into the psychology of charisma. 
       His results - informed by both insider and academic 
       viewpoints - contradicts many current accepted beliefs 
       about cult leaders and their followers.
