The dustjacket has a new Brodart Protector. This book was published by Paddington Press in 1978 and was never widely reprinted in hardcover format. Because it has been out of print for nearly half a century, the total number of surviving copies is fixed and continuously shrinking. The book is highly sought after by collectors of true crime, history, and "conspiracy" literature. It is widely considered one of the definitive, foundational texts exposing early government mind-control programs, drawing directly from over 10,000 pages of formerly top-secret CIA and U.S. Army documents (including early exposures of MKULTRA). Because it handles sensitive, heavily cited historical evidence rather than mere speculation, it maintains an active, dedicated following that absorbs the few copies left on the market. The original dust jacket features striking, iconic artwork by famed illustrator Joe Petagno (best known for designing the Motörhead logo). A significant portion of the original 1978 print run went directly to public and university libraries due to the book's academic value. So it's fairly considered a rare find. It will require insurance and a signature if purchased domestically.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. 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.
