About the Book

Analyzing Leaders, Presidents and Terrorists will astonish, entertain and inform those interested in what makes leaders tick. Matters of the greatest moment hinge on the psychological health of world leaders, and profoundly affect their administration. How can we ensure that rational decisions are being made when the person elected or leaders affecting our nation are not psychologically healthy? This books examines 13 leaders: Truman, Hitler, Mao, Khrushchev, Castro, Kennedy, Johnson, Meir, Nixon, Reagan, Thatcher, Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. It explores their upbringing, morals, sexual behavior, use and abuse of power, leadership style, what they do when the going gets tough, accomplishments and shortcomings. It is a disquieting, thought-provoking study. This powerful analysis provides good information for parents, employers, governments and anyone who is interested in those who have shaped the modern world.
