and the creation of the regulatory structure of Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) in the United States. It also discusses ethical research systems in other nations like Canada, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. The book provides a comprehensive account of controversial studies in the US, including Milgram’s Obedience to Authority, Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment, and the US Public Health Service, and the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, and analyzes how ethical concerns in these studies were or were not resolved. 

“The book’s contribution is a very significant one, methodically presenting a history of research ethics in the US along with an exploration of the ethical codes that shaped research ethics in the country. The book’s noteworthy contribution is its thorough consolidation of controversial, yet seminal, studies that hold perennial fascination for both fledgling students and seasoned scholars, supplementing these foundational narratives with its own distinctive insights. … the book transcends its niche appeal, offering accessibility to a wider readership.” (Ugljesa Radulovic, Clinical Sociology Review, Vol. 19 (1), 2024)
