Professor McCoy Exposes the History of CIA Interrogation, From the Cold War to the War on Terror 2/17/06 "A new expose gives an account of the CIA's secret efforts to develop new forms of torture spanning fifty years. It reveals how the CIA perfected its methods, distributing them across the world from Vietnam to Iran to Central America, uncovering the roots of the Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo torture scandals. The book is titled "A Question of Torture: CIA Interrogation, From the Cold War to the War on Terror."....From 1950 to 1962, the C.I.A. ran a massive research project, a veritable Manhattan Project of the mind, spending over $1 billion a year to crack the code of human consciousness, from both mass persuasion and the use of coercion in individual interrogation. And what they discovered -- they tried LSD, they tried mescaline, they tried all kinds of drugs, they tried electroshock, truth serum, sodium pentathol. None of it worked. What worked was very simple behavioral findings, outsourced to our leading universities -- Harvard, Princeton, Yale and McGill -- and the first breakthrough came at McGill. And it's in the book. And here, you can see the -- this is the -- if you want show it, you can. That graphic really shows -- that's the seminal C.I.A. experiment done in Canada and McGill University....Dr. Donald O. Hebb of McGill University, a brilliant psychologist, had a contract from the Canadian Defense Research Board, which was a partner with the C.I.A. in this research, and he found that he could induce a state of psychosis in an individual within 48 hours. It didn't take electroshock, truth serum, beating or pain. All he did was had student volunteers sit in a cubicle with goggles, gloves and headphones, earmuffs, so that they were cut off from their senses, and within 48 hours, denied sensory stimulation, they would suffer, first hallucinations, then ultimately breakdown." http://www.democracynow.org/print.pl?sid=06/02/17/1522228
UC Irvine studies long-term impact of Civil War trauma - Scott Allen, Boston Globe 2/19/06 "...an ingenious new study suggests that more than 40 percent of Union Civil War veterans suffered some form of "nervous disease" in the decades after the conflict, usually accompanied by heart or gastrointestinal symptoms. Relying on meticulous records kept for soldiers' pensions, the researchers found widespread evidence of mental illnesses such as post-traumatic stress disorder, especially among the youngest soldiers and men who saw the most death." http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/02/19/MNGKRH8S5P1.DTL
