Gustave Le Bon

Charles-Marie Gustave Le Bon was a French polymath whose areas of interest included anthropology, psychology, sociology, medicine, invention, and physics.

He is best known for his 1895 work The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind, which is considered one of the seminal works of crowd psychology.

A native of Nogent-le-Rotrou, Le Bon qualified as a doctor of medicine at the University of Paris in 1866.

He opted against the formal practice of medicine as a physician, instead beginning his writing career the same year of his graduation.

He published a number of medical articles and books before joining the French Army after the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War.

Defeat in the war coupled with being a first-hand witness to the Paris Commune of 1871 strongly shaped Le Bon’s worldview.
