About this book
Philip G. Zimbardo examines how social settings, institutions and group pressure can influence people to behave harmfully. Drawing on the Stanford Prison Experiment and his investigation of Abu Ghraib, he argues that explanations centered on individual character overlook the systems surrounding an action. The discussion also considers resistance to destructive group behavior.
