Volunteers are invited to a laboratory under the pretense of participating in a study about the effects of punishment on learning. They are told to administer an electric shock of increasing intensity everytime a "learner" makes a mistake. This text explores how ordinary people can commit the most horrific of crimes if placed under the influence of a malevolent authority.
