This book represents a critical examination of some of the conjectures about
the application of scientific knowledge to the manipulation of human behavior.
The problem is explored within a particular frame of reference: the interrogation
of an unwilling subject. A number of scientific areas have figured prominently in
speculations regarding the application of science to the manipulation of behaviour
in interrogation. For this work, scientists who had done research in each of these
areas were asked to review the state of relevant knowledge in their fields,
to consider whether and how it might be applied by interrogators, and to evaluate
the recourse available to highly motivated persons for resisting the attempted
influence. Their reports constitute the body of this work.
