A penetrating and incisive study into the unscrupulous and fanatic minds of history's most notorious figures.

From Assad to Nero, Gaddafi to Ivan the Terrible, Mad, Bad and Dangerous: The Eccentricity of Tyrants presents the psychological profiles that make up a tyrant. While leaving some room to describe the amusing incidents and eccentricities associated with a host of men and women in power, it also reaches into the terrifying depths and depravities of minds that shaped the destinies of peoples and nations. Using a unique combination of history, politics and psychology, Mad, Bad and Dangerous: The Eccentricity of Tyrants explores how power not only corrupts but deranges.
