The Nuremberg Trials were the first attempt at coming to terms with Nazi criminality. While there was a legal component to this, there was also a psychological element. What made Nazi minds tick?

In this episode, I talk with Jack El-Hai about his work on psychiatrist Douglas Kelley who worked with the Nazi defendants at Nuremberg. This book also forms the basis for the new film Nuremberg (imdb.com/title/tt29567915).

Jack El-Hai (el-hai.com) is an author with a particular interest in medical history.
