During the Cold War an alliance between American scientists pharmaceutical companies and the US military pushed the medical establishment into ethically fraught territory Doctors and scientists at prestigious institutions were pressured to produce medical advances to compete with the perceived threats coming from the Soviet Union In Against Their Will authors Allen Hornblum Judith Newman and Gregory Dober reveal the littleknown history of unethical and dangerous medical experimentation on children in the United States Through rare interviews and the personal correspondence of renowned medical investigators they document how childrenboth normal and those termed feeblemindedfrom infants to teenagers became human research subjects in terrifying experiments They were drafted as volunteers to test vaccines doused with ringworm subjected to electric shock and given lobotomies They were also fed radioactive isotopes and exposed to chemical warfare agents This groundbreaking book shows how institutional superintendents influenced by eugenics often turned these children over to scientific researchers without a second thought Based on years of archival work and numerous interviews with both scientific researchers and former test subjects this is a fascinating and disturbing look at the dark underbelly of American medical history.

Cold War Studies. 1) Why Study the Cold War?. 2) Old and New Historiography. 3) Five paradigms: Ideology; Politics and Economics; Technology and Arms Race; Culture and Propaganda; Human Rights;. Long before the U.S. government began conducting secret radiation and germ-warfare experiments, and long before the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, medical professionals had introduced—and hotly debated the ethics of—the use of human subjects in medical experiments. In Subjected to Science, Susan Lederer provides the first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the earlier period, from 1890 to 1940.Lederer offers detailed accounts of experiments—benign and otherwise—conducted on both healthy and unhealthy men, women, and children, including the yellow fever experiments (which ultimately became the subject of a Broadway play and Hollywood film), Udo Wile\'s dental drill experiments on insane patients, and Hideyo Noguchi\'s syphilis experiments, which involved injecting a number of healthy children and adults with the syphilis germ, luetin. Welsome won the Pulitzer Prize for this expose of secret radiation experiments performed over five decades by United States government doctors on unsuspecting patients. Science, as Andrew Goliszek proves in this compendious, chilling, and eye-opening book, has always had its dark side. Behind the bright promise of life-saving vaccines and life-enhancing technologies lies the true cost of the efforts to develop them. Knowledge has a price often that price has been human suffering. The ethical limits governing use of the human body in experimentation have been breached, redefined, and breached again---from the moment the first plague-ridden corpse was heaved over the fortifications of a besieged medieval city to the use of cutting-edge gene therapy today. Those limits are in constant need of redefinition, for the goals and the techniques have become both more refined and more secretive. The German and Japanese human experiments of the 1930s and 1940s horrified the world when they came to light. These barbaric exercises in pseudoscience grew out of assumptions of racial superiority. The subjects were deemed subhuman ordinary guidelines could therefore be suspended. What has happened in the decades since World War II has differed only in degree. Explicitly or implicitly, any organization or government that undertakes or sponsors scientific research applies some measure of human worth. Experimentation rests upon an equation that balances suffering against gain, the good of the collective against the rights of the individual, and the risk of unknown consequences against the rewards of scientific discovery. Everything depends upon who makes that equation. The sobering and gripping accumulation of evidence in this book proves exactly what has been justified in the name of science. The science of eugenics justified enforced sterilization. The need to gain an upper hand in the Cold War justified CIA experiments involving mind control and drugs. The desperate race to control nuclear proliferation was used to justify radiation experiments whose effects are still being felt today. Chemical warfare, gene therapy, molecular medicine: These subjects dominate headlines and even direct our government\'s foreign policy, yet the whole truth about the experimentation behind them has never been made public.Though not a cheering book, In the Name of Science is a crucially important one, and it deserves a wide audience. A biologist by training, Goliszek presents each topic clearly and explains fully its significance and implications. Connecting the history of scientific experimentation through time with the topics that are likely to dominate the future, he has performed an invaluable service. No other book on the market provides the research included here, or presents it with such persuasive force. During the Cold War, an alliance between American scientists, pharmaceutical companies, and the US military pushed the medical establishment into ethically fraught territory. Doctors and scientists at prestigious institutions were pressured to produce medical advances to compete with the perceived threats coming from the Soviet Union. In Against Their Will, authors Allen Hornblum, Judith Newman, and Gregory Dober reveal the little-known history of unethical and dangerous medical experimentation on children in the United States. Through rare interviews and the personal correspondence of renowned medical investigators, they document how children—both normal and those termed feebleminded—from infants to teenagers, became human research subjects in terrifying experiments. They were drafted as volunteers to test vaccines, doused with ringworm, subjected to electric shock, and given lobotomies. They were also fed radioactive isotopes and exposed to chemical warfare agents. This groundbreaking book shows how institutional superintendents influenced by eugenics often turned these children over to scientific researchers without a second thought. Based on years of archival work and numerous interviews with both scientific researchers and former test subjects, this is a fascinating and disturbing look at the dark underbelly of American medical history. Welsome won the Pulitzer Prize for this expose of secret radiation experiments performed over five decades by United States government doctors on unsuspecting patients. A groundbreaking, controversial dive into the role psychedelics have played in the human experience of the Divine and the development of religion throughout Western history.\'THE IMMORALITY KEY\' connects the lost, psychedelic sacrament of Greek religion to early Christianity—exposing the true origins of Western Civilization. In the tradition of unsolved historical mysteries like Grann\'s Killers of the Flower Moon and Preston\'s The Lost City of the Monkey God, Muraresku’s 10-year investigation takes the reader through Greece, Germany, Spain, France and Italy, offering unprecedented access to the hidden archives of the Louvre and the Vatican along the way.In \'THE IMMORALITY KEY\', Muraresku explores a little-known connection between the best-kept secret in Ancient Greece and Christianity. A secret with the capacity to revolutionize our understanding of the past and chart a bold, new course for the future.Before Jerusalem, before Rome, before Mecca—there was Eleusis: the spiritual capital of the ancient world. It promised immortality to Plato and the rest of Athens\' greatest minds with a very simple formula: drink this potion, see God. Shrouded in secrecy for millennia, the Ancient Greek sacrament was buried when the newly Christianized Roman Empire obliterated Eleusis in the fourth century AD.Renegade scholars in the 1970s claimed the Greek potion was psychedelic, just like the original Christian Eucharist that replaced it. In recent years, vindication for the disgraced theory has been quietly mounting in the laboratory. The rapidly growing field of archaeological chemistry has proven the ancient use of visionary drugs. And with a single dose of psilocybin, the psycho-pharmacologists at Johns Hopkins and NYU are now turning self-proclaimed atheists into instant believers.With convincing analysis and a captivating spirit of quest, Muraresku mines science, classical literature, biblical scholarship and art to deliver the hidden key to eternal life, bringing us to what clinical psychologist William Richards calls the edge of an awesomely vast frontier.RUNNING TIME ? 10hrs. and 30mins.©2020 Brian C.
