The stories are always slightly different but they have a lot in common since they’re full of the oldest questions in the world, questions of human behavior and human judgment applied in ordinary day-to-day situations. How can we explain the misbehavior that took place in these organizations-or in any of the others, public and private, that litter our newspapers’ front pages: workers at a defense contractor who accused their superiors of falsifying time cards alleged bribes and kickbacks that honeycombed New York City government a company that knowingly marketed an unsafe birth control device the decision-making process that led to the space shuttle Challenger tragedy. Hutton find themselves pleading guilty to 2,000 counts of mail and wire fraud, accepting a fine of $2 million, and putting up an $8 million fund for restitution to the 400 banks that the company had systematically bilked? What could have driven the managers of Continental Illinois Bank to pursue a course of action that threatened to bankrupt the institution, ruined its reputation, and cost thousands of innocent employees and investors their jobs and their savings? How could top-level executives at the Manville Corporation have suppressed evidence for decades that proved that asbestos inhalation was killing their own employees?
