I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but after World War II a number of prominent Nazis were tested psychologically to determine what sort of psychopathology they suffered from. Back in March 2009, the APA Monitor had a short article on this which can be read here: http://www.apa.org/monitor/2009/03/nazi.aspx At the end of the article is mention of the book "The Quest for the Nazi Personality" by Zillmer et al. Portions of which can be read at books.google.com and is still available on Amazon; see: http://www.amazon.com/Quest-Nazi-Personality-Psychological-Investigation/dp/0805818987 Henry Murray was also asked to prepare a psychological analysis of Adolf ("Adolph") Hitler and one can use the Wikipedia entry on it to go to the original report and related materials (yadda-yadda); see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_the_Personality_of_Adolph_Hitler -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
