Уилфред Троттер (1872–1939) – талантливый английский хирург и выдающийся социолог. Развивая идеи Гюстава Лебона, изложенные в его знаменитой книге Психология народов и масс, он совершил настоящий прорыв в изучении группового поведения человека и способов управления толпой, которые в наши дни активно используют политтехнологи и маркетологи. Книга Уилфреда Троттера о "стадном инстинкте" была опубликована практически сразу после окончания Первой мировой войны.

Ґюстав Лебон — французький психолог, соціолог, антрополог та історик, публіцист, найбільше відомий як засновник соціальної психології і автор одного з перших варіантів доктрини "масового суспільства". Гюстав Ле Бон обстоював ідею расового детермінізму в розвитку цивілізації. Як фундамент соціальної еволюції він розглядав не розум, а ірраціонально-вольову, емоційну сферу психічного життя — почуття і вірування. Психологія народів присвячена питанням утворення, розвитку і згасання людських рас і ролі, яку грають в цих процесах керуючі народом ідеї і люди. Власне, саме ця робота поклала початок соціальній психології як науці.

For centuries, people have argued about whether humans are moral animals—good or bad, cooperative or competitive, altruistic or selfish. The debates continue today, dressed up in the language of modern science. In this book, Jonathan R. Goodman makes the case for synthesizing the two sides. Drawing on insights from anthropology, evolutionary biology, and philosophy, he argues that rather than being fundamentally cooperative or competitive, we are capable of being both—and of exploiting each other when there is an opportunity to do so.

From the schoolyard to the workplace, from political rallies to social media feeds, we are constantly influenced by the groups around us. Sometimes that influence is benign, even beneficial—it helps communities function, ensures cooperation, and keeps social life flowing smoothly. At other times, it can lead to silence in the face of injustice, blind obedience to authority, or the chilling grip of groupthink. Why We Conform explores this paradox in depth, revealing why the desire to fit in runs so deep, how it shapes our daily lives, and what happens when it goes too far.
