Chapter 2: Obscura
Summary:
The author describes the experiment of professor Milgram. Milgram had people shock someone based on their responses. The experiment was to see how high of a setting people would shock others to be obedient. The results were shockingly high. The author then describes an interview with a subject who stopped shocking and a subject who did not.
Discussion:
I personally am not all that shocked at the results. I do not believe that mankind is inherently good or evil, but I do believe that most are simply neutral. This is by far my favorite reading out of the ones we have done so far.
