[…] she could have gone down fighting. Instead, she gave in and quit — just as she had done in 198081 over Monetary Base Control. Notes A Single Mind, MacMillan, 1989. This distinction is all the more interesting for in Joseph’s case, as Halcrow’s biography is honest enough to point out, Joseph’s conversion to monetarism […]
Susan. L. Carruthers Leicester University Press, London and New York, 1995 £45 hb, £16.99 pb. This is an important study of British psy-war activities, and the politics thereof, since the war. Almost all of this book was new to me, though I haven’t studied anti-British insurgencies. Originally a PhD thesis, happily, in Carruthers case, this … Read more
This article examines hallucinogenic-type drug experiments conducted by various elements of the U.S. Army Intelligence community in conjunction with sections of the U.S. Army Chemical Corps.
