Triumph of the Will? How two men hypnotised Hitler and changed the world.

In October 1918 Adolf Hitler, a lance-corporal in the Austrian army, lost his sight following a British gas attack. Doctors diagnosed his blindness as due not to physical injury but mental breakdown. He was suffering from what they then called hysteria.

Rather than being treated in a nearby hospital, he was sent 600 miles from the Front to a ‘nerve’ clinic in the Pomeranian town of Pasewalk. There Dr Edmund Robert Forster, one of Germany’s leading hysteria specialists, used hypnosis to cure him.

Although his sight was restored, the experience left Hitler convinced he had a divine mission to ‘make Germany great again’.

In the early 1930s he became friends with a second hypnotist, a Moravian Jew

and media billionaire named Eric Hanussen. Despite his race, he supported the Nazis, promoted Hitler in his newspapers and coached him in showmanship.

Together, these two men transformed a once purposeless drifter into a merciless tyrant able to manipulate the minds of millions.

One reviewer described my book as: “Utterly absorbing…drawing upon profound wells of research”.

Mind Skills  Giving Your Child a Brighter future

Is your child’s brain receiving the sort of stimulation that will develop the mind skills essential for success in today’s world? This exciting and practical book contains a series of simple procedures to help your child, according to his or her individual make up.

Children often fail at school because the teaching is not geared to their natural way of learning: they may be logical or intuitive, practical or creative or somewhere between the two. Once you have identified your child’s mind-style (and your own), you can choose appropriate methods that will suit his or her way of perceiving and learning. A child whose mind skills have been developed in this way will have a much better chance of the school and career success.

Mind Skills is a manual for the future. A highly effective way of preparing children to excel in the fiercely competitive technological world that awaits outside the school gates.

“The best part of Dr David Lewis’ “computer child” approach is his belief that every school should treat every child equally as a genius” – The Guardian.

“Shows how parents hold the key to their children’s intellectual success… They are their child’s best hope.”
