About the Author

Stanley Milgram was an influential American social psychologist whose research examined obedience, authority, and the pressures that shape human behavior. Best known for his landmark studies of obedience to authority, he brought experimental rigor and provocative ethical questions to the study of social influence. His work continues to inform psychology, sociology, history, and public discussions about responsibility and conformity. His major book, "Obedience to Authority: An Experimental View (Perennial Classics)," remains widely read, alongside "Soumission a L'autorite Un Point De Vue Experimental (French Ecdition of Obedience to Authority)." Milgram’s legacy lies in his clear, unsettling exploration of how ordinary people respond to powerful institutions.
