People obey the law if they believe it's legitimate, not because they fear punishment, this is the startling conclusion of this study.

It finds that people obey law primarily because they believe in respecting legitimate authority. With illustrations. Paperback, 320 pages. Size: 229 x 152 mm. Weight: 514g.
