I'm currently reading a rather interesting book on the "making" of Adolf Hitler. Evidently, when he was gassed in World War I; he got "hysterical blindness" which the medical class of the time considered a disease of wimps... So the shrink (Edmund Forster) who worked on him gave Hitler a "god complex" and thus cured him. Evidently Adolf couldn't see Germany loose a war, and thus made himself blind. By convincing him that he was going to fix all that, Dr. Forster thus created a monster and ended up signing his own death warrant a few decades later.
This is extremely interesting so far, so I may post again on this as I get farther along... You can check out the synopis at the following link: http://www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Invented-Hitler-Making/dp/0755311493
