Product Description

Matthew Parris
This is psychobiography without the psychobabble. I found it absorbing, clear, lively and persuasive. I think David Owen is right.

Dr Raj Persaud
A unique and penetrating insight. Anyone who intends to vote at any election should read this book first.

5.0 out of 5 stars THe Hubris Syndrome, 26 Jul 2007
This is a well thought out and intuitively constructed book confirming what many people suspected: Bush and Blair were corrupted by the powers that they were given and because of their misguided actions the world is in a more difficult place.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suddenly, everything about Blair's premiership becomes clear., 20 Aug 2007
I cannot imagine a more convincing indictment of Blair post 9/11. I was surprised to find myself utterly persuaded by the hypothesis and, in fact, even if I were not, the cool, clear analysis of events is as compelling and conclusive a critique of his failure as any I have read.

3.0 out of 5 stars A frightening little book, 23 Feb 2009
By Mac McAleer (London UK) - See all my reviews
This is an interesting, and frightening, book by someone with intimate experience of both politics and medicine chronicling a selection of beloved leaders portrayed as physically or mentally suspect.
