The Hour of the Predator by Giuliano da Empoli

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.

There is no real analogy between power and money but it has been historically established that one leads to another in no one direction. But what happens if they are directly proportional in nature. A person with money ends up with power beyond comprehension. And this exposes the irrationality of a person.

Humans are driven by passion (its presence or abundance) but the passion doesn't always bring sanity. Bringing the two together is a lifetime project. Add money/power to it and it will never come together.

The cases in this book shows the hunger for that power, and what extent do people go to get it or maintain it. 

Peace
