Sympathy, patience, insight, rapport --these were the magic words. They must remain so, but as
means to an end and not as an end in themselves. The more sceptical 'tough minded' worker,
thrusting out from these enshrouding curtains to the harder realities.." Page 2 : "That the
experimental and quantitative study of abnormal human behaviour is a science still very much in its
early stages will be apparrent from the fact, which will be seen later, that a great deal of its energy is
still of necessity being directed to the evolution and perfection of experimental weapons.." (--this
cataloguer has skimmed looking for Cameron's further comments on the "weaponization" of "the
science of abnormal behavior," and does not find it). On page 3 Cameron laments that the "dualistic"
notion of the "inviolable soul" has postponed "the scientific study of human behaviour." (Sidenotes:
Cameron cites George Estabrook, 1929, on race and IQ, Estabrook another evil genius in this line.
For a discursive, qualified look at Cameron's crimes, refer Harvey Weinstein, "A Father, a Son and
the CIA" also issued as "Psychiatry and the CIA").

"Since the publication of the British edition of this book it has been shown that the letter reproduced
on pp. 310-11 and reported in the Sunday Times (see p. 67 below) purporting to be written by
Gordon Goldstein is a forgery. Although the relevant sections of the book must now be read with this
in mind, some points should be noted. The suggestion that there are bases in Thailand is by no
means implausible. The storage of CW munitions on bases in Germany and on Okinawa has been
admitted by the US. Preparations for the deployment of BW munitions, possibly at the same bases,
are quite likely to have been made. US aircraft fly missions from Okinawa to Vietnam, and this has
caused some embarrassment to the Japanese government." FYI, research from the same period in
British files (much more accessible than counterpart US files) published as "A HIgher Form of
Killing," may be a slightly better book than the one in hand.

A transcription of an address "delivered before the Salt Lake Woman's Club, March 1st, 1898."
These are Curtis' thoughts on the eve, not only of a new physics, but a new imperialism. Sample
quotes : "The Roentgen rays, or the X rays of Tesla, were the discovery of 1896; but last year so
widened the sphere of investigation..." following which find ruminations on electricity, magnetism,
vibration ("mounting into the trillions per secord"), the "new element helium," ether, the wave
properties of light, truisms of poetry and myth, and science fictional adaptations of radio waves :
"Signor Marconi claims to have sent, successfully, telegraphic dispatches through a hill.. Great
Britain, in her pride as queen of the seas, rejoices in having built in 1897, the fastest battleship that
ever parted the waves of the ocean; but of what avail would be her swift-winged battle ship, if from
any one of the U. S. lighthouse an electric ray could explode its magazine as far away as a beam of
light could be thrown?" It should be noted that this cataloguer's hurried reading has failed to discover
any discussion of the promise held out in the title, of "progress in aerial navigation." // Blavatsky and
Bulwer Lytton are cited, along with Edison and Morse, Edison getting most attention. No further
mention of Tesla. // Other shorter notices in The Review deal for example with discovery of cobalt
deposits in America, and the success of a recent anti-expectoration ordinance.

"Direct exploration of the brain of unanesthetized animals before and after administratin of drugs
may give information about their selective pharmacological action upon cerebral structures." Note
the "un" in unanesthetized. "The following substances have been studied: 14 per cent CO2, 10 per
cent O2, atropine, diphenylhydantoin, phenobarbital, trimethadione, chlorpormazine, reserpine,
lysergic acid diethylamide, and tubocurarine." No photographs of subject animals. Another article in

make an anecdotal case, citing cult leaders, politicians (Ceausescu bad, Churchill good) and
nobodies, for a dreary theory, that a viable personality is a balance of paranoia and optimism -- a
hazy use of the word paranoia. Dr. Hamilton's vita seems unextraordinary, but V. S. Burnham's
"extensive volunteer activites culminated in her being knighted a Dame of Malta in 1985" so, SHE's
a cold warrior and HER vanity-press babble may be of interest.

of "chosen people" status (here of course, Aryan).

cloth tape binding, dated based on statement in text that Pinkham's had been in business for over
fifty years (founded 1875). A self-help pamphlet based on Pinkham's Seven Rules of Health (drink
water, keep clean, play and work hard, eat well, sleep well, get sun and fresh air, and BE
CHEERFUL!) and her herbal remedies (including the Pill for Constipation, Sanative Wash (douche),
Pile Suppositories, and her famous Vegetable Compound). Pinkham cautions that "this little book
treats of delicate subjects". 25.00
Lydia Estes Pinkham (1819-1883) was also a Quaker who advocated abolition, a temperance
supporter (despite the fact that the original Vegetable Compound contained 18% alcohol), and a
Grahamist (vegetarianist and inventor of the Graham cracker). Pinkham had little faith in 19C
medicine, with good reason due to its harsh treatments and low success rate. She treated her sons
stricken with TB with her Herbal Medicine. While they succumbed to the disease, medicine at the
time had little better cures. Vegetable Compound is still on the market .

seems to be a long-time Native American activist and something of practical researcher with at least
a smattering of conventional chemistry. Discusses hypnotic applications (visualizations), several
varieties of hallucinogen, recounts his experiences. "On one occasion I swallowed fifty captules of
peyote powder, ate a half-dozen raw peyote with plenty of peyote tea. Plus, I added five hundred
milligrams of pure mescaline, and straightened up the resulting sickness with three hundred
micrograms of LSD!! Needless to say, my experience was quite profound.." p.157.

Shuman is not a radical; citations of Jose Delgado's work are minimal, and in fact he seems to side
with Delgado on the "inviolability of the brain" thesis. Shuman's references to Peter Breggin (19 cites)
while paying tribute to Breggin's "unhypocritical" absolute opposition, sits the fence : Breggin is
"eschewing science for propaganda," moreover he shouldn't have gone directly to Congress to drum
up public distaste for lobotomy, nor meddled in "the Detroit case," which appears to have touched
Shuman particularly.

sentences: "First, this is what the DSM III says about psychosis.. I'll break the DSM III down to you
this way. Suppose your doctor said something like this to you.. [It ] means, in essence.. [Spevack
'translates']. Your intelligence makes the situation far from hopeless.. You, as an intellect, may not
own a business or work in a career that is commensurate.. Try, have hope.. " There is a 7-page
bibliography listing useful things to read in the field (these not mere "uplift").

County, Ala., was continued during the year. The purpose of this study is to record observations
over a period of years on a group of 400 syphilitic male Negros who have received no treatment and
a comparable group" &c, about 225 words. Boasts that "No similar study of the effects of untreated
syphilis over a period of years, correlated with the pathologic findings at death, has ever been
made." As an aside, hindsight rather, as it had been better concealed, remember the 1946-48

gonorrhea "experiment" in Guatemala, deliberate infection of the unwitting, especially soldiers and
prisoners who could be monitored, this experiment involved prostitutes and "the feeble-minded" also.

continuation of the study of the carrier problem with special reference to the possible public health
menace of inadequately treated cases with manifestations of involvement of the central nervous
system." Much more descreetly worded than the 1938 acknowledgement, these two annuals ('35 &
'38) the only such to mention the so-called Tuskeegee syph experiment, the 1938 one being about
225 words. 40.00

the rest of the conferees think violence is amenable to ablation of brain structure and the
implantation of electrodes. Find three pages of cartoons, these show a troop of monkeys, eight
adolescent males, before and after going under the knife. // NB, conferees are not big names,
except for Montague, and none of the scalpel-wielders are famous. One team, Mirsky and Harman,
