Brainwash : the secret history of mind control / by Streatfeild, Dominic.(CARDINAL)421470;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 387-406) and index.Includes information on amnesia, ARTICHOKE project, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), hypnosis, hallucinogens, interrogation, LSD, MKULTRA project, satanic ritual abuse, sensory deprivation, sleep, suicide, truth drugs, Unification Church, etc.What would it take to turn you into a suicide bomber? How would you interrogate a member of Al Qaeda? With access to formerly classified documentation and interviews from the CIA, the U.S. Army, MI5, MI6, and the British Intelligence Corps, acclaimed journalist Dominic Streatfeild traces the history of the worldʼs most secret psychological procedure. From the cold war to the height of todayʼs war on terror, groups as dissimilar as armies, religious cults, and advertising agencies have been accused of brainwashing. But what does this mean? Is it possible to erase memories or to implant them artificially? Do heavy-metal records contain subliminal messages? Do religious cults brainwash recruits? What were the CIA and MI6 doing with LSD in the 1950s? How far have the worldʼs militaries really gone? From the author of the definitive history of cocaine, Brainwash is required reading in an era of cutting-edge and often controversial interrogation practices. More than just an examination of the techniques used by the CIA, the KGB, and the Taliban, it is also a gripping, full history of the heated efforts to master the elusive, secret techniques of mind control.

Brainwashed : the seductive appeal of mindless neuroscience / by Satel, Sally L.(CARDINAL)536945; Lilienfeld, Scott O.,1960-2020.(CARDINAL)383674;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 157-218) and index.Introduction : losing our minds in the age of brain science -- This is your brain on Ahmadinejad : or what is brain imaging? -- The buyologist is in : the rise of neuromarketing -- Addiction and the brain-disease fallacy -- The telltale brain : neuroscience and deception -- My amygdala made me do it : the trials of neurolaw -- The future of blame : neuroscience and moral responsibility -- Mind over gray matter.In recent years, the advent of MRI technology seems to have unlocked the secrets of the human mind, revealing the sources of our deepest desires, intentions, and fears. In this book, the authors argue that the explanatory power of brain scans in particular and neuroscience more generally has been vastly overestimated. Although acknowledging its tremendous potential, they believe that the overzealous application of the burgeoning field of brain science has put innocent people in jail, prevented addicts from healing themselves, and undermined notions of free will and responsibility.
