Blitzed Command - How Drug Addiction Destroyed the Third Reich

Callum S. Lamb

Sinossi

They called it medicine. It was systematic addiction on an industrial scale.

In this explosive exposé, historian Callum S. Lamb unveils one of World War II's most disturbing secrets: Nazi Germany's systematic distribution of methamphetamine to millions of soldiers and civilians. From the gleaming laboratories of Temmler-Werke to the frozen battlefields of the Eastern Front, "Blitzed" reveals how an entire nation became dependent on pharmaceutical enhancement.

Drawing from declassified Wehrmacht medical records, captured corporate documents, and previously suppressed Allied intelligence files, Lamb exposes how Hitler's personal physician transformed the Führer into a drug-dependent leader making catastrophic decisions under chemical influence. Meanwhile, German housewives consumed "mother's little helpers," students popped pills to study longer, and factory workers relied on stimulants to meet impossible quotas.

The Wehrmacht's early victories weren't just tactical genius—they were fueled by 35 million Pervitin tablets distributed during the French campaign alone. German soldiers fought for days without sleep, their artificial courage masking the systematic addiction that would ultimately contribute to military collapse.

But the most shocking revelation isn't what happened—it's what came after. Allied forces discovered the evidence, then systematically suppressed it for seventy years. Corporate executives escaped prosecution. Medical professionals buried their complicity. And the lessons that could have prevented future pharmaceutical abuse were deliberately erased from history.

From Nuremberg's courtroom silence to Cold War cover-ups, from academic oversight to collective German amnesia, "Blitzed" exposes how institutional denial protected reputations while burying truth. This meticulously researched investigation reveals how a nation's chemistry experiment in human enhancement became history's most successful cover-up—and why these lessons remain dangerously relevant today.

The truth about drugs in the Third Reich will shock you. The conspiracy to hide it will terrify you.

The Cost of "Non-Maghreb" -...

Aldo Liga

Over the last decades, rivalries, bilateral disagreements, and distrust between Maghreb states have taken a toll on common political and security challenges, like the Western Sahara issue, the Libyan conflict, the destabilisation in the Sahel region and transnational clandestine flows. Moreover, the Maghreb is one of the least economically integrated regions in the world, and this leads to the region's loss in growth, and the disheartening record of missed opportunities for stability and prosperity. This is the cost of the "non-Maghreb".
This Report aims to unpack the political and economic costs of the "non-Maghreb", understand its historical genesis and geopolitical implications and, more broadly, what the future might hold for individual countries and the Maghreb as a divided, fractious but potentially coherent whole.

Integrating Mindfulness into...

PhD Noga Zerubavel, PhD Terri...

As you know, mindfulness is a powerful tool for treating a variety of mental health issues. However, if you're a clinician treating clients who have suffered from trauma, you are also aware that mindfulness can sometimes cause significant stress or discomfort. So, how can you incorporate mindfulness into your treatment—safely and effectively—for improved outcomes? 
 
 
 
Integrating Mindfulness into Psychotherapy for Trauma offers a transdiagnostic, process-based approach to treating trauma with mindfulness, with interventions that are practical, simple, and easy to teach. You'll learn how to form individualized, trauma-informed case conceptualization and treatment plans, and integrate mindfulness into psychotherapy with a focus on four interconnected mindfulness mechanisms: attentional focus, body awareness, emotion regulation, and changes in perspective on the self. 
 
 
  
You'll also find a framework for targeting specific trauma symptoms, with an emphasis on when and how to effectively integrate mindfulness into sessions, and a variety of mindfulness practices to help your clients make and sustain treatment gains. Strategies for how to intervene when difficulties such as panic attacks or painful memories arise during a mindfulness practice are also provided, along with discussions of therapist mindfulness and trauma stewardship.
