"Jonathan D. Moreno, a biomedical ethicist at the University of Virginia, worked for the committee, then went on to examine the broad history of experiments that the United States Government had secretly conducted on human subjects in the interest of national security from World War II through the cold war. The result is "Undue Risk," an earnest, often chilling account of experiments with chemical and biological agents as well as radiation, and of the policies--or, more accurately, lack of policies--that long governed them....Not all his proposals seem practical....But the historical record that he presents in "UNDUE RISK" strongly supports his contention that the rights of human subjects deserve to be held paramount over any needs of national security.Moreno, Jonathan D. is the author of 'Undue Risk Secret State Experiments on Humans', published 1999 under ISBN 9780716731429 and ISBN 0716731428.
