539 pages including index and notes. Ten thousand pages of formerly top secret U.S. Army and C.I.A. documents prove that for twenty-five years United States government agencies undertook the most extensive mind-manipulation program in the history of the world. Every conceivable method for molding the mind was explored and refined, many of them tested on unwitting American citizens. Psychologists, psychiatrists, physicians, prison officials, scientists, lawyers and politicians have, for decades, been involved in mind-control research in hospitals, laboritories, universities, mental institutions, medical offices, prisons and schools. Dramatically portrays how originally harmless medical research can become wedded to politics to create the most powerful and formidable weapons a government might use on its own citizens. Treats in detail the methods of: "brainwashing"; drugs; lobotomy; psychosurgery; castration; behavior modification; aversion therapy; electroconvulsive shock treatment; direct brain stimulation; and many more. Thoroughly documented. Authors possess extensive academic credentials. Book clean and unmarked with very light wear. Possibly unread. Light foxing to each edge of textblock. Eerily illustrated dust jacket bears light edgewear and no tears. Errata slip laid in. Please note: the U.S. and Canadian version has ISBN 0-448-22977-3. Excellent copy. Book
