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
184 pages including index. "At the time when I undertook to write this book, the defence policies of Canada were a matter of greater public interest than perhaps at any previous period in time of peace since the Dominion came into existence in 1867. Today, with the country involved in a new Great War and that war in a critical stage, they command still more attention. This volume is presented as a possible contribution to public information and discussion on the subject... Intended to provide an outline of the history of Canadian defence policy, with emphasis upon the most recent period." - from Author's Preface. Chapters include: Geography and Canadian Security; The Military Institutions of an Unmilitary People - Canadian Defence Policy to 1914; The Great War and After 1914-1935; The New Defence Policy 1935-1939; The Second World War.
