Milgram's obedience study is a very influential and important one in the field of psychology and social sciences. If I was asked: what one psychology study do you recommend me to read I would say this one! Just in case you are pressed for time, I have written a description of it on my blog a couple of years ago. I attempted to make it concise and straight-forward. I hope you manage to get around it. This is the link: Obedience Study

Thank you for stopping by :)
Best,
