For 80 years, scientists at Porton Down have sought to develop deadly and destructive chemical weapons within one of Britain's most secretive installations. Thousands of human volunteers were subjected to a programme of often ruthless medical testing yet their stories have remained untold. Now many are claiming they are suffering the long-term effects from these tests with serious damage to their health and a police enquiry has been launched. In this daring new publication, journalist Robert Evans investigates the ethics and actions of the scientists and survivors of Porton Down.
About the Author: Former journalist for the Sunday Telegraph, Rob Evans is currently a freelance politics writer for the Guardian. He has worked as a researcher on a number of television programmes and in 1999 he was awarded the Award for the Campaign for Freedom of Information.
