Overview
What's behind the narcissistic behaviour of political leaders, wild opinion on social media, and polarised debates? How to tame the political animal: The missing piece is a journey of discovery of the underlying behaviour patterns that make us politically self-centred, and effectively, less human. From the holy sites in Jerusalem to popular revolutions in the Arab world, this book builds on John Bell's extensive experience as a diplomat and mediator in the Middle East to show how we ignore this key dimension of our politics at our peril. By breaking down the ingredients of what constitutes our political ego and how they work, this book provides us with the means to master it.
