Why read it?

2 authors picked Batman and Psychology as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

We've all got an opinion on the musings, motivations, and state of mind of Bruce Wayne and Batman.

Instead of just idle musings, Travis Langley goes on a deep dive into the tormented and traumatized (or is it really?) life of the Dark Knight. Reading Batman and Psychology gave me a different perspective on the blurry lines separating Bruce Wayne and Batman.

Highly recommended read!

From E.'s list on the superhero in you.

The idea of analyzing Batman's mind as if he were a real person intrigued me enough to get this book.

I expected a tongue-in-cheek read but it turned out to be a stunningly well-researched piece of work. What surprised me, even more, was how much I learned about psychology as the author dove deeply into the minds of Batman, his enemies, and his fans.

Marriage and Fatherhood in the Nazi SS By Amy Carney,
