Oliner (emeritus, sociology, Humboldt State U.) presents a wide-ranging meditation on the nature of good and evil, limiting the terms generally to mean acts of helping others as good and acts of harming others as bad. His discussion looks to history, psychology, and other disciplines for insights; explores examples of genocide (the Holocaust and the Armenian and Rwandan genocides) and acts of resistance and heroism in the face of genocide; and draws on his own personal experience as a twelve-year-old in Nazi-occupied Poland.
