Perhaps the Earliest Psychological Report on Adolf Hitler, 1941/2

JF Ptak Science Books   Quick Post

I wanted to take a moment and post something from the bookselling section of this blog, something that’s pretty interesting and scarce in its own right.  It is a work produced at the Harvard University Department of Psychology by Henry A. Murray (1893-1988), the Worksheets on Morale. Seminar in Psychological Problems of Morale which was published in 1942 and contains a section which turns out to be the first psychological profile of Adolf Hitler–this copy was formerly in the library of the Office of Strategic Services, the precursor and incubator of the CIA.
