a poorly conceived experiment has Implications

Revisado: 01-23-22

this is the story of a terrible idea. In the late sixties a college professor's experiment in prison psychology went off the rails and everyone looked bad. in the aftermath,some information of value is gleaned.
The experiment could never happen again and maybe the people who ran it should have done some time- but it still was enlightening to hear it applied to other situations.
The one thing that sort of makes you wonder if theres a whole lot we found out from what happened, also the level of video and audio documentation is too low for todays standards
Interesting but not authoritative. well performed.

the startling history of American policing

Revisado: 10-13-21

I couldn't turn this book off. It's a history of policing in the United States. starting in the 1970s things get very frightening. I was unaware of how many rights we had had stripped back in the subsequent decades. it was strange to see Joe Biden portrayed as inept and part of the problem with American policing. I had just read peril and he was more or less the hero of that book.
an education in the erosion of the third and fourth amendment this book is a must read. updated to reflect recent events including the Capitol riots I was fascinated with what I learned.
every American citizen needs to read this book to understand the direction policing has taken and how radically different it is from what was envisioned by our founding fathers
I can't recommend this book more highly
