Description:
The powerful forces of group pressure that pervaded many historic movements such as Nazism are recreated in the classroom when history teacher Burt Ross introduces a « new » system to his students. And before long « The Wave, » with its rules of « strength through discipline, community, and action, » sweeps from the classroom through the entire school. And as most of the students join the movement, Laurie Saunders and David Collins recognize the frightening momentum of « The Wave » and realize they must stop it before it’s too late.
