In 1943 William Donovan the director of the Office of Strategic Services (the forerunner to the CIA) approached Harvard psychologist Walter Langer and asked him to construct a psychological profile of... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is the "Book" that started it all folks. Written at the express order of the President, for the War effort. O.S.S., Father of the CIA, was a collector of information, and detained German Deportees for interviews with Doctor Langer. Every fact and prediction, written by Langer, about Hitler, and the German Leadership came to pass. Written and completed 2 years before Hitlers death, the book told how and why Hitler would kill himself, his sexual deviations, and nothing since comes close to Langers work. Brilliant. A must read for any student of History.
The Mind of Adolph Hitler
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
What lead me to read this book was my curiosity as to what sort of man could justify his murderous crimes committed against humanity with the sanctimonious claim that he was appointed to Universal leadership by divine power. I highly recommend that people who are interested in this book consider to read the currently published "Bush on the Couch" by Justin A Frank.MD. as I have, and was alarmed by the estounding parallel in these two individual's personality and behavioral traits. They are frightening, if not eerie. I am a Holocaust survivor

although i am no professor, i feel this book gave me a good insight and understanding of hitler, as well as life altering events that may have contributed to such monstrous actions.since i have read this book i am now able to give my own opinion on why he became such an evil and unhappy human being.
One of the Most Interesting Books I've EVER Read!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This book was soo interesting!!! I would recomend it to everyone who's ever thought, "Jee, I wonder why Hitler was the way he was." I can now truley understand why Hitler killed 11 million people. (I don't agree, of coarse, but I understand why he did it.) It tells all about his childhood, personal life, and later military life. I couldn't put it down, and I am going to start reading it for a second time. This is definatly worth buying. -Kelly
facts you didn't know about Hitler
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I'm somewhat of an history buff, especially WWII, but when my Mom bought me this book at a yard sale, I didn't know what I was in store for upon reading it. There are lots of little known facts about Hitler's secrets and his personal life. We get a glimpse inside of Hitler's head to see what makes him tick - it wasn't just his hatred of the Jews that drove him. The book was just a conglomeration of interesting information, and contains many rare photos. If you like reading about Hitler or similar topics, this book is worth buying.
