Historie
From Caligula to Stalin and beyond, this book offers a unique and pioneering look at the recurring phenomenon of the 'mad king'. The remarkable facts that emerge lead the author to contend that mental health has played a determinant part in the making of history, where private traumas protect the pulic policies of deranged statesmen. This controversial study makes for fascinating reading; it also offers a challenging new perspective on our understanding both of history and contemporary politics.
