From the rear cover: "First Conquer Thyself: Socialization of violence and abuse is often highly structured through the Munchausen Complex. Munchausen Syndrome occurs when an individual harms themselves for attention and self-glorification. Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is when an individual harms another usually under their care. Attention and self-glorification are achieved through their victim's subsequent medical treatment. Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is a crime with a victim. Violence and abuse are often common in families passed down from one generation to the next and may be termed Transgenerational Munchausen Syndrome as these families expand and their habits are introduced into society. Munchausen Syndrome in Collective Transmission occurs when such practices become an acceptable part of society often eventuating into full acculturation. In this way societies attach themselves to self-glorification with various explanations of justification. A Mandated Report is required to be filed by health care legal social service and educational professionals who suspect child abuse as well as developers of film. As socialized beings we are often unaware why we think what we think and why we do what we do. Exploring beneath the surface we may discover we are not who we imagine we are. Are our subtle perversions and aberrations so different from those of the ancients or other cultures we label primitive Censorship is strong when one questions social norms folkways and rituals that address issues of identity. Internal interpersonal and professional conflicts arise. The author was under military orders not to discuss the subjects presented in this part's Mandated Report on child abuse to the social body for the last six years of his U.S. Navy career.".

From the dust jacket: "In 1991 Sean McPhilemy produced 'The Committee' a sensational documentary for British television that revealed that a group in Northern Ireland -- drawn from the Unionist members of the business community Protestant clergy the police RUC and the British security forces -- was systematically colluding with Loyalist terrorists to murder Irish Republicans and other Irish Nationalists. The documentary contained exclusive firsthand testimony of a member of the Loyalist committee responsible for the murders. This source provided a detailed account of how various assassinations had been planned and carried out. The broadcast of 'The Committee' resulted in highly publicized legal proceedings in the High Court in London when the British Conservative government tried unsuccessfully to force the program makers to identify their source. Since the broadcast of his documentary McPhilemy has struggled to protect his reputation in the face of various legal actions against him over the program. Harassed by British authorities and his life threatened he has brought two libel actions against newspapers in London that sought to discredit him. THE COMMITTEE gives a full account of the murder conspiracy the making of the documentary the subsequent legal proceedings and additional evidence that substantiates the original allegations. In nthe meantime the Committee alledgely continues to operate with impunity -- and Loyalist terrorists carry on the killing.". Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket.
