Zimbardo Oral History

About This Novel

In "Zimbardo's Oral History", Professor Zimbardo faces readers directly for the first time and recounts his life's journey. Wisdom can be seen in his growth story: at the age of 8, he summed up the rules of leaders and followers while playing with his peers; when he was studying, he was mistaken for the Sicilian Mafia and was isolated. Instead of being depressed, he began to pay attention to and think about the power of situations; while working on Broadway, he not only accumulated a lot of experience in "making customers pay", but also learned how to manage time and quickly switch between multiple tasks. In this book, Professor Zimbardo completely traces his 50 years of teaching and research experience, describing his four major contributions - the Stanford Prison Experiment, conceptualizing shyness, time perspective research, the causes, consequences and sources of inspiration for the Heroic Imagination Project. Readers can see how scientific research with vitality and creativity derived from life was born. In addition, you will also read about Zimbardo's experiences and stories of becoming a popular star teacher at Stanford, leading hundreds of students in anti-war protests, and fighting for employment opportunities for minorities and women. You will find that he is not only a scholar who questions human nature, but also a natural educator with a teacher's blood, a peace-loving activist who pays attention to the disadvantaged groups in society, and a great thinker with the world at heart. From a poor boy in the ghetto to a master respected by everyone, from an out-of-control prison experiment to helping people become a better version of themselves, "The Oral History of Zimbardo" will take us to witness the journey of a generation of psychological masters, and at the same time give us a deeper understanding of ourselves, the environment and human nature.
