A comprehensive, alphabetically-arranged documentation of social behaviours exemplified in the O.J. Simpson case. These include both the theory and application of phenomena such as aggression, belief perseverance, collectivism, discrimination, empathy, evaluation apprehension, and fundamental attribution error. Cast in psychological framework, it emphasizes the clear but inadvertent interplay of a myriad of social behaviours theorized and researched by social psychologists, showing how individuals interact with and are influenced by one another, but these influences and interactions are mandated by a number of verbless. These include the different perceptions of mainstream Americans and African Americans to the events in the case. The book ends with an exploration of the interaction of gender, race, and religion and defines the boundaries that have resulted from the sequence of events.
