add to cart   close window

Can subliminal stimulation be used to gain control of people's minds? The question has concerned men like author Aldous Huxley, and has occupied space in such widely different publications as "Life," "The Atlantic" and the "Wall Street Journal." Science-fiction writers, those assiduous extrapolators of current events, assume that subliminal stimulation will be an integral part of future society. A short story printed in the journal of "Fantasy and Science Fiction" makes explicit the kind of fear that has been gnawing at man an intelligent mind. In the story, the protagonist has a piece of electronic equipment that can halt the pictures appearing on a TV screen.
