Description
The Lucifer Effect: How Good People Turn Evil The human mind has the capacity to be infinitely caring or selfish, kind or cruel, creative or destructive. Psychologist Philip Zimbardo examines how our minds can shift from one extreme to the other, challenging our conceptions of who we think we are and what we believe we will never do. Zimbardo's book explores the safeguards we can put in place to prevent ourselves from corrupting or being corrupted by others, and what sets some people apart as heroes and heroines who can resist powerful pressures to conform. He draws on his classic Stanford Prison Experiment and personal experiences as an expert witness to raise fundamental questions about the nature of good and evil.
