I only got through the part about the Stanford Prison Experiment (well almost) and it's just too detailed. I understand why but it took me so long to get through just that part that I gave up. I have other things to read!

Will get back to it, the day-to-day from the Stanford Prison Expirement started to become boring

Very interesting book from the guy who did the Stanford Prison Experiment I’m sure y’all have heard about at some point or another. It’s a fascinating look into a dark side of human nature.
The content of the experiment is very interesting. The writing needed a good editor.
This book should have been cut by 30%. It is long winded, drones on about unimportant things, and generally progressed at the pace of cold molasses.
Content is 10/10. Delivery is 4/10.

I think if you read it with a critical mind it's a very good book. Recommended to psychology students who like knowing more about the field, don't think it would be too interesting for a layman the whole way through. It does drag on a bit in the end, but the final message is good, wish it was placed with more omph as the final sentence so it would be remembered better by readers once they are done.

The first part, when it talks about the experiment is very interesting, but I guess when that is over I really dont want to keep reading. Enjoyable enough, though.
