Review "The creator of the famous "Obedience Experiments," carried out at Yale in the 1960s, and originator of the "six degrees of separation" concept, Stanley Milgram was one of the most innovative scientists of our time. In this biography - the first in-depth portrait of Milgram - Thomas Blass captures the colorful personality and pioneering work of a man who profoundly altered the way we think about human nature."--BOOK JACKET.
