Foreword
Foreword
The Wave is based on true events that occurred in a high school in Palo Alto, California in 1969. According to the teacher Ron Jones, no one talked about the incident for three years. He claimed "It was one of the most frightening events I have ever experienced as a teacher."
"The Wave" disrupted the entire school. The novel dramatizes the incident, showing how the powerful forces of group pressure that have pervaded many historic movements and cults can persuade people to join such movements and give up their individual rights in the process - sometimes causing great harm to others.
