With a foreword by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy: The Final Analysis presents indisputable forensic evidence that two shots fired from the front and one shot fired from the rear killed the president in a Dealey Plaza crossfire—exposing a sixty-year coverup by the CIA, the FBI, the Pentagon, and the Secret Service.

In this decisive analysis of the JFK assassination, medical expert Dr. David W. Mantik and
New York Times bestselling author Jerome R. Corsi definitively validate the observations of the physicians at Parkland Hospital, who recognized immediately that the wound in JFK’s throat and the massive, avulsed blow-out in the back of his head both involved frontal shots.

What distinguishes this book from the myriad of books written on the JFK assassination is that Dr. Mantik’s optical density measurements of the JFK skull X-rays in the National Archives leave no doubt the X-rays were altered to disguise evidence of the two frontal shots. With over four decades of experience reading X-rays, Dr. Mantik has examined the JFK assassination materials more than anyone else.

Mantik and Corsi present overwhelming testimonial and documentary evidence that proves the Bethesda surgeons performed pre-autopsy surgery on JFK’s head to remove evidence of the forehead bullet, as well as to gain access to his brain and thus “sanitize the crime scene” by removing bullet fragments and bullet tracks in the brain tissue.
“The world is starving for objective science. This book contains objective forensic science for which the world will never be ready. If the X-rays were doctored, the CIA, the FBI, and the US Secret Service have some questions to answer. The public deserves the final analysis of these issues.”
—James Lyons-Weiler, PhD, The Institute for Pure and Applied Knowledge

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Soon after an 8 year-education in a one room country school, followed by high school in the Wisconsin Northwoods (while daily milking cows beside a trout stream), David W. Mantik happily escaped these chores and instead opted for a PhD in physics in Madison, Wisconsin. After that he entered a postdoctoral fellowship in biophysics at Stanford, and next signed onto the tenure track physics faculty at Michigan. Several years later, after an MD at Michigan, he moved to USC for his radiation oncology residency, where he was awarded a junior faculty clinical fellowship by the American Cancer Society. After board certification by the American College of Radiology, he joined the medical faculty at Loma Linda University, where he directed the residency training program and treated patients with the newly developed proton beam. He has now been treating cancer patients for over 40 years. He has visited the National Archives on nine different days (no one else comes close), where he took hundreds of measurements from the extant JFK X-rays, examined the autopsy color photographs in stereo, viewed the Magic Bullet, bullet debris, JFK’s clothing, copies of the Zapruder film, and the Secret Service re-enactment films. His thick notebooks encompass three separate volumes, which contain precise locations for all metal debris on the skull X-rays. He has had two telephone conversations with the JFK autopsy radiologist (Ebersole), interviewed numerous JFK autopsy technicians (including multiple conversations with Jerrol Custer and James Jenkins), and has met several of the Parkland doctors (McClelland, Crenshaw, Jones), as well as one of the FBI note-takers at the autopsy (Sibert). He has now studied the medical, forensic, and eyewitness evidence in this case for over 30 years. His work may be followed at themantikview.org and at KennedysandKing.

Worth the sixty year wait
My exposure to the assassination of JFK began as a student sent home from an English class lecture on Henry David Thoreau to watch another triple-named man's assassination before sixty Dallas police officers.The presidential commission relied upon a military autopsy with unprecedented anomalies, successive reports with initial efforts burned, x-ray films demonstrably false, photographs contradicting dozens of professional medical witnesses.The record was corrupted, but it would be six decades of doubt and speculation before this thorough scientific correction. The finality of this ultimate analysis is worth the wait.Dr. David Mantik, a radiologist with physics doctorate, has demonstrated through the optical density tool of his profession that the president was hit by three head shots: occipital, right forehead, right temple.Extraordinary claims backed by extraordinary research, nine visits to the Archives, thousands of individual optical density measurements of the extant frontal (AP) and side (lateral) x-rays showing a fabricated 6.5 mm artifact not noted by the autopsists (Humes, Boswell, Fincke) or the original radiologist (Ebersole).Evidence of a forehead entry is seen in the skull and the particle stream, a stream which is separate from the occipital and temporal wounds. A white patch concealing the loss of skull at the rear defect noted by Parkland and Bethesda medical personnel.The Harper Fragment proves to be the Rosetta Stone of the analysis as it bears metallic traces of entry as well as proves a frontal shot by its forcible expulsion to the rear.The introduction by Douglas Horne the ARRB military medical records specialist places the x-rays in perspective with the presentation of multiple casket arrivals, pre-autopsy surgery, two brains and two brain exams.In an era when the call to follow the science is foremost we need look no further than this volume.

Dr Mantik has, IMO, the last word on the coverup of JFK's assassination & autopsy. No one is more qualified than he to make sense of this disasterous tragedy. His style of writing is easy to follow, & I couldn't put this book down. It's chock-full of photos, diagrams, xrays, graphs, & footnotes, plus an incredible bibliography. The only part of the book I found difficult to follow was Dr Mantik's reports of his optical density experiments, which I skimmed over.

The tome is well-researched and documented. Great scientific insight into this tragic assassination orchestrated by the CIA and Fourth Estate. JFK had he survived, would have eliminated the CIA and kept us out of Vietnam. There were three shots, two from the front, and one from the back, all at street level with minimal height. The implicated shooter did not fire any accurate shots. Recommended.

Ignorance and stupidity ultimately reign with reviews from people like "Dominick T. Armentano," who has never written anything of any real substance or research with regard to JFK and his demise . . .

As the author of "Mary's Mosaic," and having researched JFK's assassination for over 30 years, David Mantik's new book answers many questions with careful scientific inquiry. His collaboration with Jerome Corsi and Douglas Horne gives further credibility to one of the most tragic events in American history.

I applaud this book because it gives the reading public one of the clearest and best explanations as to what actually took place! Thank you, thank you David Mantik, Jerome Corsi, and Douglas Horne !

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2024
What inspired me to read this book was a short synopsis from Dr Mantik of his 3 shots to JFK's head thesis conclusion in the book KILLING KENNEDY by Jack Roth. Sometimes a brief explanation of a complicated event, especially as in this case with all the technical medical facts, serves the purpose more proficiently.

I remember shortly after the turn of the century I made a trip to Dallas and met the late Jack White who conducted the "Moorman in the Street" experiments to show that the Zapruder Film had been altered. My first two thoughts were I was not going to get a measurement that would benefit Jack's thesis, and why didn't Jack settle the matter with surveyors' equipment.

Jim Fetzer's book on the Zapruder Film THE GREAT ZAPRUDER FILM HOAX quelled both of my concerns when I saw David Mantik and Jim Fetzer used surveyor's equipment and had obtained a measurement of 42" for the distance of the Mary's camera eye to the ground (I had obtained 41.5"). My thoughts with their verification were that this proves Jack's contention that there was Z film alteration, but not too many people will understand what Jack was doing. About 10 years later when I viewed a video "The Zapruder Film Mystery", I knew beyond a shadow of doubt that the Z film had been altered. Horne expands on his findings with his interview of Dino Brugioni to show even Hollywood film producers agreed. We must also remember this evidence from Brugioni was first presented in Peter Janney's excellent book MARY'S MOSAIC.

The research community owes David Mantik, Jerome Corsi, and Douglas Horne a ton of gratitude for their indefatigable efforts in shining a light on the true facts of this case as given in this masterpiece. One area I believe needs much more attention is who, when, and where the post mortem surgery done on JFK's head was done. A friend of mine, Tim Fleming, wrote a book JFK AND THE END OF AMERICA IN 2018 that focused on a mortician (John Liggett) who was featured in one of the final "The Men Who Killed Kennedy" episodes. He was able to do interviews with Liggett's stepdaughter who was interviewed in this same episode. Fleming speculates that the postmortem surgery could have possibly have been done as early as when JFK's body was still at Parkland Hospital. Anyway, I suspect research will long be going on at the time of my expiration date. Thanks again, Dr Mantik and Dr. Corsi for your tireless efforts.

Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2024
Almost every year new titles and documentaries come out about the assassination of President Kennedy. There usually is a new twist presented, suggesting various possible culprits behind the assassination. The Final Analysis comprehensively covers much of what I have already read in other books, as well as a fair amount of additional material, pictures and many X-rays to consider that have not been available in other publications. The bottom line for me is the X-rays clearly show there had to be more than one shooter, and one would have to believe in fairy tales to believe in the 'magic bullet' nonsense. Without a doubt, there was and remains a massive cover up. Will the pubic ever definitively know who actually shot and was behind the killing of President Kennedy? I hope so. Even if you have read umpteen books on the assassination, if this is a subject that interests you, I recommend The Final Analysis. This book is not a fast read, but it will hold your interest to the very last page.

The book is very good and gives detailed insights into what happened to JFK. Dr, Mantik has presented this book in a very good way by giving evidence of what the book says. The book was a good read but it was severely bent when it arrived and that didn't seem to have occurred during shipping. Other than that, I will recommend this book!

2.0 out of 5 stars NOT IMPRESSED
Reviewed in Canada on April 9, 2024
Recently received so have only glanced at a few pages. Purchased the hard cover version for $50.00 plus so expected a wow factor, expected full page gloss photographs, especially the radiographs and would have expected illustrations such as as arrows or areas boxed in to be in colour. It should not be necessary to have to use a magnifying glass to look at these photographs.
Buyer Be Ware.
