DARPA - ESP - MENTAL TELEPATHY & the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT's PROJECTS and ACTIVITIES Copyright 2007
DARPA - ESP - MENTAL TELEPATHY & THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT'S PROJECTS AND ACTIVITIES copyright 2007 The calculated and technological entry into another person’s mind is an act of monumental barbarism which obliterates– perhaps with the twiddling of a dial – the history and civilisation of man’s mental development. It is more than an abuse of human rights, it is the destruction of meaning. For any one who is forced into the hell of living with an unseen mental rapist, the effort to stay sane is beyond the scope of tolerable endurance. The imaginative capacity of the ordinary mind cannot encompass the horror of it. We have attempted to come to terms with the experiments of the Nazis in concentration camps. We now have the prospect of systematic control authorized by men who issue instructions through satellite communications for the destruction of societies while they are driving new Jaguars and Mercedes, and going to the opera.

BONVILLIAN,RICHARD VAN ATTA AND A ATRICK INDHAM P W TTA Perspectives on the U.S. Defense ,W Advanced Research Projects Agency The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has played a remarkable role in the crea�on new transforma�ve technologies, revolu�onizing defense with stealth INDHAM drones and precision-guided muni�ons, and transforming civilian life with portable GPS receivers, voice-recogni�on so�ware, self-driving cars, unmanned aerial vehicles, and, most famously, the ARPANET and its successor, the Internet. Other parts of the U.S. Government and some foreign governments have tried to apply the ( ‘DARPA model’ to help develop valuable new technologies. But how and why has DARPA EDS succeeded? Which features of its opera�on and environment contribute to this success? EDITED BY WILLIAM B. BONVILLIAN, .) And what lessons does its experience offer for other U.S. agencies and other governments ICHARD AN TTA AND that want to develop and demonstrate their own ‘transforma�ve technologies’? R V A This book is a remarkable collec�on of leading academic research on DARPA from a wide PATRICK WINDHAM range of perspec�ves, combining to chart an important story from the Agency’s founding FOR in the wake of Sputnik, to the current a�empts to adapt it to use by other federal agencies.
