Signed directly to the title page by Philip Zimbardo, "Ciao, Phil Zimbardo".
In The Lucifer Effect, renowned social psychologist Philip Zimbardo (1933–2024) presents his definitive account of how ordinary, decent individuals can be driven to commit acts of cruelty under specific situational and institutional pressures. Drawing directly on his landmark 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment—published here in full detail for the first time—alongside real-world case studies including the Abu Ghraib prison abuses, Zimbardo challenges the conventional "bad apple" theory of human behaviour, arguing instead that systemic environments corrupt the individual.
