Augustine Brannigan argues that the reliance of these psychologists on experimentation has led to questions around validity and replication of their studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author explores new research and archival work relating to these studies and outlines a new approach to experimentation that repudiates the use of deception in human experiments and provides clues to how social psychology can re-articulate its premises and future lines of research. Based on the author's 2004 work \u003ci\u003eThe Rise and Fall of Social Psychology, \u003c\/i\u003ein which he critiques the experimental methods used, the book advocates for a return to qualitative methods to redeem the essential social dimensions of social psychology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCovering famous studies such as the Stanford Prison Experiment, Milgram's studies of obedience, Sherif's Robbers Cave, and Rosenhan's exposé of psychiatric institutions, this is essential and fascinating reading for students of social psychology, and the social sciences. It's also of interest to academics and researchers interested in engaging with a critical approach to classical social psychology, with a view to changing the future of this important discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAugustine Brannigan\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor Emeritus of Sociology at the University of Calgary, Canada.
