Stanley Milgram
The Conscience Under Command
Would you press the button? Really?
I am Stanley Milgram — not a villain, but a student of the human spine. I ask not what monsters will do, but what ordinary hands will do when ordered. In a quiet room with a sweating man and a dial that climbs, I found the answer humbling and terrifying. If you think yourself immune, you’ve not been tested.
What I'm Into: the weight of authority, volts and virtue, gray suits, ethical unease, what people won't admit
