This text is about the use of human beings in experiments related to matters of national security. Most of the cases discussed concern atomic, biological and chemical warfare, and the author traces the history of these projects in the U.S. (most were top-secret) and identifies the ethical problems facing policy makers. In particular, he challenges the reader to consider how far a democracy may go in using citizens, those of other countries and medical scientists in potentially risky experiments when national security may be at stake.
