I was recently looking at the Colin A. Ross Institute web site, http://www.rossinst.com/ Apparently, Ross' new book _Building The Manchurian Candidate: Deliberate Creation of Multiple Personality by Psychiatrists_ is complete and under review at a publisher. According to the web page http://www.rossinst.com/manchurian.htm the publication date was uncertain as of 10-8-99. Ross has done some commendable work in exposing mind control abuses, especially regarding dissociative disorders, and his CKLN interviews are a must-read. It is saddening, though, to read toward the end of the "manchurian" page above. Perhaps it only seems to me like he is trying to placate torturers. (Maybe to keep his institute from suffering retribution?) On his False Memory Syndrome Page http://www.rossinst.com/mem.htm it is suggested that the real goal is to improve the quality of life of victims. But when he is talking about literal torture and "real victims," I think the notion of JUSTICE should at least make an appearance. I hope the review process mentioned above does not end up "sanitizing" the book and removing vital information... -- Allen L.
