The survey includes Ivan Pavlov, his famous dogs, and his less-famous test trials on children; the CIA's MK-ULTRA project, in which LSD was given to unsuspecting test subjects; and Robert Heath's experimental psychosurgery on African-American subjects. Mosley also talks with B. F. Skinner's daughter; a man who participated in Stanley Milgram's obedience experiments; and a survivor of William Sargant's electroshock therapy. Under the guidance of controversial psychiatrist David Nutt, Mosley even ingests psilocybin to explore its potential in treating mental illness. A BBC Production. Written by BBC See less
