He claimed that Morell had “pumped the Führer full of drugs” and was now merely attempting to justify his actions. In his opinion, Morell had turned Hitler into a physical wreck. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The image of a decrepit and drug-dependent psychopath in the Reich Chancellery bunker is one of the most enduring myths about Hitler. It provides a simple explanation for his actions: who but a sick man could have ordered the killing of millions of people? Hans-Joachim Neumann and Henrik Eberle study this question and seek answers in the detailed notes and diaries left by Morell, in medical reports, pharmacological analyses and interviews with eye witnesses. Their conclusions are clear and definitive.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003eHans-Joachim Neumann\u003c\/b\u003e is Emeritus Professor of Medicine at Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHenrik Eberle\u003c\/b\u003e is Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany.
