It is Fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters." # Fantasy # Fear # Life and Living

Here, too, appear the lighthouses of the mind, with their outward resemblance to less pure symbols. The gateway to mystery swings open at the touch of human weakness and we have entered the realms of darkness. One false step, one slurred syllable together reveal a man's thoughts." # Fantasy # Action # Life and Living

How ordinary people become monsters ... or heroes

Philip Zimbardo knows how easy it is for nice people to turn bad. In this talk, he shares insights and graphic unseen photos from the Abu Ghraib trials. Then he talks about the flip side: how easy it is to be a hero, and how we can rise to the challenge.
