How Madness Shaped History
Christopher J. Ferguson is a noted psychologist, most famous for his books and media appearances discussing video games and violent behavior. His most recent book takes a look at leaders throughout ages and explores how their psychological disorders have altered the course of human history. We discuss how the 1930’s were a boon for mass murdering political leaders, the danger of the psychological “dark triad”, and how incest shaped the minds of several generations of monarchs.
