The Lucifer effect : understanding how good people turn evil by Philip G Zimbardo( Book )

31 editions published between 2007 and 2013 in English and held by 2,671 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

What makes good people do bad things? Where is the line separating good from evil, and who is in danger of crossing it? Social psychologist Philip Zimbardo explains how--and the myriad reasons why--we are all susceptible to the lure of "the dark side." Drawing on examples from history as well as his own research, Zimbardo details how situational forces and group dynamics can work in concert to make monsters out of decent people. By illuminating the psychological causes behind such disturbing metamorphoses, Zimbardo enables us to better understand a variety of phenomena, from corporate malfeasance to organized genocide. He replaces the long-held notion of the "bad apple" with that of the "bad barrel"--The idea that the social setting and the system contaminate the individual, rather than the other way around. Yet we are capable of resisting evil, he argues, and can even teach ourselves to act heroically.--From publisher description

Violence workers : police torturers and murderers reconstruct Brazilian atrocities by Martha Knisely Huggins( )

22 editions published between 2002 and 2006 in English and Portuguese and held by 2,089 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Of the twenty-three Brazilian policemen interviewed in depth for this landmark study, fourteen were direct perpetrators of torture and murder during the three decades that included the 1964-1985 military regime. These "violence workers" and the other group of "atrocity facilitators" who had not, or claimed they had not, participated directly in the violence, help answer questions that haunt today's world: Why and how are ordinary men transformed into state torturers and murderers? How do atrocity perpetrators explain and justify their violence? What is the impact of their murderous deeds--on them, on their victims, and on society? What memories of their atrocities do they admit and which become public history?

The choice : embrace the possible by Edith Eva Eger( Book )

6 editions published in 2017 in English and held by 1,233 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"At the age of sixteen, Edith Eger, a trained ballet dancer and gymnast, was sent to Auschwitz. Hours after her parents were killed, the 'Angel of Death,' Nazi officer Dr. Josef Mengele, forced Edie to dance for his amusement--and her survival. He rewarded her with a loaf of bread that she shared with her fellow prisoners--an act of generosity that would later save her life. Edie and her sister survived multiple death camps and the Death March. When the American troops liberated the camps in 1945 they found Edie barely alive in a pile of corpses. Edie spent decades struggling with flashbacks and survivor's guilt, determined to stay silent and hide from the past...Today, at ninety years old, Edie is a renowned psychologist and speaker who specializes in treating patients suffering from traumatic stress disorders. She...weaves her remarkable personal account of surviving the Holocaust and overcoming its ghosts of anger, shame, and guilt with the moving stories of those she has helped heal. She explores how we can be imprisoned in our own minds and shows us how to find the key to freedom..."--Jacket

The shy child : a parent's guide to preventing and overcoming shyness from infancy to adulthood by Philip G Zimbardo( Book )

27 editions published between 1981 and 2008 in English and Italian and held by 998 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Two out of every five people in the U.S regard themselves as "shy". Yet, shyness can be cured, says Dr. Philip Zimbardo, the nation's leading authority on shyness. With co-author Shirley Radl, Dr. Zimbardo presents a program for overcoming and preventing shyness from infancy to adulthood. The Shy Child is based on pioneering research conducted at the Stanford Shyness Clinic, including surveys of people in the U.S. and abroad, interviews with children, parents, teachers, and the systematic experimental research that compared the behavior of shy to non-shy people. This book documents which parenting "style" encourages self-confidence in a child, helps with the problems of being shy and provides methods for building a child's trust and self-esteem. It explores the role that school plays in contributing to a child's shyness, and suggests ways to improve the quality of the classroom experience for every child. The Shy Child is the only book to provide an effective program for conquering shyness in childhood, before it has a chance to limit a child's options and determine the course of the child's life.

Collateral damage : the psychological consequences of America's war on terrorism( )

1 edition published in 2006 in English and held by 632 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Led by the chairman of the American Psychological Association task force charged with pinpointing the effect of anti-terrorism efforts on America's mental health, these experts offer the most up-to-date picture available of the fallout of antiterrorism programs. That fallout, as discussed here, includes stereotyping of foreigners, increased domestic hate crimes, fear, depression and feelings of helplessness, as well as increasing militancy and belligerence, especially among students. Perhaps most disturbing in the "land of the free," is a growing acceptance of human-rights violations and restrictions on personal freedoms."--Jacket

The mask you live in( Visual )

5 editions published in 2015 in English and held by 550 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"The Mask You Live In follows boys and young men as they struggle to stay true to themselves while negotiating America's narrow definition of masculinity. Pressured by the media, their peer group, and even the adults in their lives, our protagonists confront messages encouraging them to disconnect from their emotions, devalue authentic friendships, objectify and degrade women, and resolve conflicts through violence. These gender stereotypes interconnect with race, class and circumstance, creating a maze of identity issues boys and young men must navigate to become 'real' men. Experts in neuroscience, psychology, sociology, sports, education, and media also weigh in, offering empirical evidence of the 'boy crisis' and tactics to combat it. The Mask You Live In ultimately illustrates how we, as a society, can raise a healthier generation of boys and young men"--Representation Project website
