Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The CIA wanted absolute control over the human mind. Long before MK-ULTRA, they built the prototype.In August 1950, a cryptic, uncorroborated cable from Lisbon landed on the desk of the Director of Central Intelligence. It spoke of a man on a Soviet merchant ship who moved like a machine-turned off and turned on again. Panic rippled through the top tiers of American intelligence: Had the Soviets cracked the code to human mind control Driven by Cold War hysteria, the CIA launched Operation Bluebird-its first official, systematic program designed to master brainwashing, induce amnesia, and command absolute obedience.For decades, Bluebird was dismissed as a minor footnote, buried beneath the notorious shadow of MK-ULTRA.

They failed.Methodology & Source Material Note: This work is a rigorous historical reconstruction built entirely on certified primary sources, declassified DCI records, Church Committee testimony, and archival evidence.Perfect for readers of: - The Search for the Manchurian Candidate by John Marks- Poisoner in Chief by Stephen Kinzer- Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties by Tom O'Neill- Fans of Cold War espionage history, dark government secrets, declassified true crime, and investigative journalism.Scroll up and click 'Buy Now' to uncover the secret origin of the war for the human mind.…
