What makes us human — and why do we often forget this essential truth? This book explores the challenging question of how ordinary people lose their humanity, carefully examining the daily choices, social pressures, and primitive instincts that lead us down the path to cruelty. If you've ever wondered what divides society today-or how we can reclaim our common humanity-this book offers clear insights and practical techniques.

In a world filled with division, we explore the dark side that is present in all of us-how fear, group affiliation, and declining empathy drive people to harm others. Dehumanization isn't just a historical concept; it's a reality we're grappling with right now. But recognizing this problem is only the beginning-this book serves as a wake-up call and offers powerful ways to break this troubling cycle. By facing the hard truths honestly and using psychological insights alongside actionable advice, you'll discover how self-awareness, critical thinking, and courage can transform isolation into genuine human connection.

The line between good and evil isn't drawn between us and them; it runs through each of us. Are you brave enough to look inside yourself? This book is perfect if you've ever wondered how “good people” can commit shocking acts, or if you worry that you may inadvertently contribute to harm. Blending hard truths with hopeful solutions, here's why this book is impossible to put down:

— Urgency: By linking past tragedies to today's divided society, the book makes the issues immediate and personal.

— Scientific credibility: Backed by groundbreaking psychological experiments, the book explains cruelty with credible and insightful science.
