The application of the logic of abduction to Hitler’s mental development is fascinating, and clearly no other author has tried to apply Peirce’s description to Hitler in such a way. -- Beth A. Griech-Polelle, Pacific Lutheran University\u003cbr\u003eThe amount of literature on Adolf Hitler is astounding. And yet, as Ben Novak demonstrates, historians still have not fully explained how this ill-educated and irrational provincial Austrian actually rose to power in Germany. This work uses the concept of abductive logic both as a means of investigating the mystery of Hitler's rise to power and as a way to understand the mind and character of Hitler. Novak's book, written in an engaging narrative style, offers a compelling argument for a new approach to the mystery of Hitler's rise to power. -- Jackson Spielvogel, Pennsylvania State University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: The Historical Problem of Hitler  Chapter 2: The Third Logic: The Background and Formal Structure of Abduction Chapter 3: Characteristics of Abduction Chapter 4: Abductive Logic in Literature Chapter 5: The Application of Peirce's Abductive Theory to Unraveling the Mystery of Hitler's Youth Chapter 6: The Genesis of the Fuehrer: The Birth of Hitler's Character Chapter 7: In That Hour it Began Chapter 8: Closing Argument: How Did He Do It?","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037546545495,"sku":"9780739192245","price":91.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780739192245.jpg?v=1750936195","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/hitler-and-abductive-logic-the-strategy-of-a-tyrant-9780739192245","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
