Based on a review of hundreds of thousands of heretofore unavailable or classified documents, this Report tells a gripping story of the intricate relationship between science and the state.Under the thick veil of government secrecy, researchers conducted experiments that ranged from the mundane to such egregious violations as administering radioactive tracers to mentally retarded teenagers, injecting p 606 $aHuman experimentation in medicine$zUnited States 606 $aRadiotherapy$zUnited States 606 $aNuclear medicine$zUnited States 606 $aMedical ethics$zUnited States 606 $aRadiation victims$zUnited States 606 $aGene therapy$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHuman experimentation in medicine 615 0$aRadiotherapy 615 0$aNuclear medicine 615 0$aMedical ethics 615 0$aRadiation victims 615 0$aGene therapy 676 $a616.9897 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453364603321 996 $aFinal report of the Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments$91937975 997 $aUNINA
