Book excerpt: This book is the most up-to-date, comprehensive analysis of Hitler written by a psychologist. Going beyond the reliance on a Freudian interpretation of Hitler's personality, Schwaab employs his knowledge of abnormal psychology to penetrate the paranoid world of Hitler and to demonstrate the depth of his mental disturbance. The analysis is framed by a poignant personal reflection on Schwaab's experiences (and those of his father, who was first a follower of Hitler and later one of those who attempted to assassinate him) growing up in Nazi Germany and an afterword in which the meaning of Nazism is placed in the context of contemporary developments in a reunited Germany.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of how psychoanalysis was used in the war against Nazi Germany - in the crucial quest to understand the Nazi mind. Daniel Pick brings both the skills of the historian and the trained psychoanalyst to weave together the story of clinical encounters with leading Nazis and the Allies' broader interpretations of the Nazi high command and the mentality of the wider German public who supported them. Following the bizarre capture of Hitler's deputy Rudolf Hess in 1941, Pick follows closely the story of how leading British psychiatrists assessed their new charge, in an attempt to understand both the man himself and the psychological bases of his Nazi convictions. At the same time, he uncovers the story of how a team of American officers working for the OSS, the forerunner of the CIA, were engaged in an attempt to understand Hitler's personality from afar, using the theories and techniques of Sigmund Freud. Drawing upon a large cache of archives on both sides of the Atlantic, Pick asks what such psychoanalytical and psychiatric investigations set out to do, showing how Freud's famous 'talking cure' was harnessed to the particular needs of military intelligence during the war and the task of post-war reconstruction that followed. Looking beyond this, he then shows just how deeply post-war Western understandings of how minds work and groups operate were influenced by these wartime attempts to interpret the psychopathology of Nazism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Psychological Analysis of Adolph Hitler--His Life and Legend (1943), is a psychoanalytical report of Hitler prepared for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), predecessor to the CIA, by American psychologist Walter C. Langer in collaboration with three other psychologists--Professor Henry A. Murray, Dr. Ernst Kris, and Dr. Bertram D. Lewin. In writing this analysis, Langer and his colleagues interviewed people who knew Hitler personally and drew upon over 1000 pages of research from a document known as The Hitler Source Book. The report made several accurate predictions about Hitler's future, such as an assassination attempt on him by the German aristocracy and his suicide in the event of defeat. This psychological profile of Hitler was the forerunner of the field of profiling foreign political leaders by the CIA, including Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, Chinese leaders Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, and Cuban leader Fidel Castro (also available from Cosimo Reports.)
