In the 26 years since The Control of Candy Jones was first published, the controversy surrounding this wrenching tale of how one of America's most famous models was used by the CIA as a human guinea pig in its infamous mind control experiments, has never completely vanished. It has remained a "cult book," fueling the cause of critics of the CIA, and further defining the now proven (and accepted) thesis that the minds of certain people can be manipulated and controlled, in this instance, for evil purposes. 20th Century Fox paid significant money for it as a film vehicle for Jane Fonda, yet never produced the movie despite attempts at screenplays by three of Hollywood's best, and has refused to sell the rights to the many producers who've expressed interest in making the film. Why? The CIA attempted to suppress the book, as did one of the doctors, a physician to the stars, who spearheaded the intelligence agency's mind control experimentation. This edition, with a new foreword by the author, presents another opportunity for every concerned citizen to share the compelling tragedy suffered by Candy Jones during that dark, tumultuous period in our history known as the "Cold War."

"Very Early Book of Mind Control"

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

The book starts out in her childhood with her father talking to her in the pantry and then squeezing her fingers in a nut cracker as in most if not all cases of Trauma Based Mind Control it starts in the home,also her mother rejects her, father leaves the family but she loves her grandmother and her death in front of her was traumatic.I would say that she was very lucky to have her last husband radio personality Long John Nebel as he noticed her fracturing at the slightest occurrence,so since he knew a lot of people including Doctors they suggested he try Hypnosis and it was during this process he discovered she was a mail currier for the C.I.A. and oddly enough the F.B.I. as well, you don't usually read about the F.B.I. using Mind Controlled Slaves,anyway when she was being trained by the C.I.A. they loaded her to be a racist and to isolate herself from the public like all mind control slaves that way they won't be found out but to her credit in a waking state she was a model and entertained the troops as the first pin up girl in the 1940's,well all the said if you looking for dirt on the C.I.A. or the F.B.I. you won't find it in this book as this book is all about a husband trying to stop his wife from fracturing at the slightest occurrence (a flickering candle or a phone ring),all in all I would say it's great starter book on Trauma Based Mind Control.

Fascinating

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2015

Fascinating story of a NYC model who volunteered and was brainwashed & mind controlled by a Doctor to run secret missions for the CIA which she "forgot" under the hypnosis used in the brainwashing in the 50's or early 60's as I recall...I think she also saw the same doctor, Dr William Bryan?, as Sirhan Sirhan who was framed for the murder of Bobby Kennedy in 1968 but was apparently brainwashed by this doctor I read and anyway some other hitmen/hired likely CIA assassins shot Bobby from behind in the head it appears....

Great book! but I'm partial to all books by Donald Bain! It's one of those page turner books.
Once I started it couldn't put it down.

The Answer to Great Mysteries of our Time?

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2014

Verified Purchase

You have no idea how fascinating. This obscure volume from the
seventies has power and impact that goes waaaay beyond the
written page. Could this really have happened? If you conclude
it's all true, than it has implications that effects us all, even today.
The book also provides telling clues to some of the most controversial
mysteries of the twentieth century. Really.

Excellent but depressing.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 15, 2015

Verified Purchase

This book made me feel so sad that some humans can treat others so abominably and dress it up as being for the public good. This poor woman was turned into a puppet. A guinea pig in a terrible experiment. She never seems to have fully recovered. Heartbreaking.

Good

Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2016

Could all be made up. hypnotism is a touchy subject, whether you think it's real or not. but overall, a good read and quite interesting.
