This book is an excellent book on the history on human experimentation in North-America and the involvement of the CIA into this research. The starting point of this research was already before the Korean war, but it became linked to this war in the sense that the American public was confronted with confesions of thousands of American prisoners of war in the hand of the communist governments in China and North-Korea. As these confessions were false, it was natural to ask how they were obtained. The search for methods to control the mind and to extract the truth from prisoners were justified with these incidents and concerntrated on hypnosis, drugs (in particular LSD) and to a minor degree also implants in or near to the brain. Although a careful questioning of the returned prisoners of war and defected communist interrogators showed that these advanced methods had not been behind the mass confessions, the research continued and many people were harmed within the framework of this research. The Canadian researcher Cameron imposed on his patients the most radical methods through isolation and heavy medication for months and with the result that the patients losts decades of their long term memory and often had to relearn merely everything they had learnt before in life. The wide spread experimentation with LSD at leading US-American universities might have popularized this drug into the academic world and might be one of the causes for its abuse in the decades to come. Also the case of CIA-researcher Frank Olson is discussed, but the information in this book might be outdated as contemporary publications based on an autopsy indicate that he was actually directly murdered by the CIA and that the publically admitted LSD-explantations were only a part of the cover-up of this case. The book is based on documents declassified by the CIA and the author has done a great job in making this knowlege accessible to the general public. It is certainly worth to read about this subject beyond the here given short summary. To a certain degree, the findings of the author are parallel to the setting of the book "The Manchurian Candidate": although mind control did not originate from the USA, it was used by scientists and politicians in the USA for their purposes and new victims were added to those it had inh other countries. A sad case mentioned in the book is that of the Soviet KGB-defector Yuri Nosenko who brought valuable information to the CIA but was kept three years in isolation in a CIA prison under Soviet-style reeducation-conditions as his CIA-supervisors did not trust him. But besides all criticism, it should be acknowledged that it was the tradition of an open society with its "Freedom of Information Act" which made this book possible
