I watched this documentary a couple of days ago and I found it to be so very interesting. I am very intrigued by the human psychic and a man such as Adolf Hitler is – to say the least – an interesting character to study within the subject.

1943, during the burning war, the American Office of Strategic Services (OSS)  attempted to pierce the psychic of the dictator. A group from the Harvard University was assigned the project tasked create a top secret psychological profile of Hitler with intent to predict his future actions. The result was startling. A frightening mixture of abuse, obsession and perversion.

The photograph of Hitler is from Hitler, Herbert Walther, Ed., 1978, Bison Books, London, p. 94. The caption reads ”Hitler in 1925 after his release from Landsberg.” The photograph is credited to the Bundesarchiv in Koblenz.

Extremists is the story about three political acts of violence that have received attention the last years. A close story about the people behind the attacks of terrorism. The author Magnus Sandelin also discuss the environmental and society view on the movement of extreme politics. Why are certain politic fundamentalism perceived as harmless teenage revolt while others as pure unjustifiable evil?

Intend to start reading it as soon as possible. It is not going to be simple to find the time to finish it soon even though it’s just a 229 page pocket book. I’m in a busy stage of life! Quite looking forward to acquire a personal summary, judged by it’s cover the book is possibly potentially. (As we all know we should not judge a book by it’s cover.)
