Could you inflict pain on an innocent stranger just because someone told you to? Stanley Milgram’s groundbreaking obedience experiments shocked the world by revealing that the answer for many ordinary people is yes. In this gripping and accessible book, we delve into the controversial experiments and the man behind them.
You’ll experience Milgram’s work firsthand and grapple with its disturbing results. We’ll explore the ethical debates, dissect the variations of his experiments, and see how obedience plays out dangerously in the real world. But this isn’t just about the past. Milgram’s work helps us understand cults, social media mobs, and the slippery slope from blind obedience to horrific acts.
This book challenges you to confront your own capacity for obedience and inspires you to build a world where conscience always prevails.
