Description
Brian Klaas explores the complex relationship between power and corruption in this insightful analysis. Drawing on over 500 interviews with world leaders, from presidents to dictators, Klaas reveals surprising insights into how power affects individuals and societies. From the workings of psychopathic brains to the effects of power on monkey behavior, Klaas weaves together cutting-edge research and personal encounters to shed light on this fundamental question: do corrupt people seek power or is it a product of their environment? This thought-provoking book offers a nuanced understanding of the intricate dynamics at play when individuals with power are given the opportunity to act.
