Suppress and Dominate. How Do People Lose Their Humanity?

If you command a person to electrically shock another for incorrect answers, they will follow the order until they kill. If you offer a person to become a guard in a prison where their own classmates are held, on the... first day they will do everything possible to avoid having to show cruelty, but only on the first day; afterward, the experiment will have to be stopped due to instances of uncontrolled aggression from the group of guards. What does authority mean to a person? What are they willing to do for the approval of society? What crimes can be committed under orders, and what line will a healthy person never cross? Is there even such a line? You will find answers to these questions in the book by two of the greatest social psychologists of the 20th century.
