Hurry! Only 4 Left in Stock!
Philip Zimbardo's psychological study on the nature of evil and the limits of human behavior. The book is centered around the Stanford prison experiment conducted by the author and other real events that demonstrated how ordinary people can commit cruel acts under certain conditions. The author analyzes how environment, power, and role models influence choice and responsibility. It is an attempt to understand why good people sometimes cross dangerous boundaries.
The author explains how situations can influence behavior more strongly than a person's individual traits. He introduces the concept of the "Lucifer effect" — the process by which an ordinary person gradually adopts the rules of a system and begins to act against their own moral principles. In the book, Philip Zimbardo examines power, obedience, group pressure, and the mechanisms that justify violence.
The author draws on years of research, materials from the Stanford experiment, interviews, and specific cases, including experiments and court trials. The text combines scientific argumentation with examples that read like a gripping report. The book not only explores the dark side of human nature but also discusses responsibility and the possibility of resisting the system. This is the first translation of the book into Ukrainian.
