II. Books by others devoted entirely to Milgram and his research
- Thomas Blass (2004). The Man Who Shocked the World: The Life and Legacy of Stanley Milgram. NY: Basic Books.
- The first, and only, biography of Milgram—both about the man and his work. Named one of the top books of the year by Discover magazine.
- Thomas Blass (Ed.) (2000). Obedience to Authority: Current Perspectives on the Milgram Paradigm. Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum.
- This book contains mostly original, invited chapters meant to demonstrate the contemporary vibrancy of the obedience studies. My own chapter in it is titled, “The Milgram paradigm after 35 years: Some things we now know about obedience to authority.”
- Steve Rushton (Ed.) (2004). The Milgram Re-enactment. Berlin: Christoph Kellerrevolver Verlag.
- In 2002, conceptual artist, Rod Dickinson, recreated portions of the obedience experiment with actors in Glasgow, with meticulous attention to details to recapture the laboratory experience at Yale in 1961-62. The chapters in this book reflect on that reenactment.
- Don Mixon (1989). Obedience and Civilization: Authorized Crime and the Normality of Evil. London: Pluto Press.
- A contrarian perspective on the interpretation and significance of the obedience experiments.
- Arthur G. Miller (1986). The Obedience Experiments: A Case Study of Controversy in Social Science. NY: Praeger.
- A scholarly and well-written examination of the obedience experiments with emphasis on the controversies surrounding them.
