		Sargant had a vision, bordering on messianic zeal, that he would lead psychiatry into a new world.
		It was here that Sargant, the son of a wealthy and staunchly Methodist family, began to experiment with what he called "heroic doses of drugs used in different combinations".
		Sargant's Sleep Room was modelled on the one Ewen Cameron had created in the Allan Memorial Institute as part of the MK-ULTRA programme.

	Possession
		William Sargant gives an account of a Voudoun ceremony he witnessed in Haiti, where two girls became simultaneously possessed by Ghede, a loa who is known to be particularly sexually active: "They half stripped each other and one girl symbolically raped the other with a masculine type of pelvic approximation.
		Sargant and his colleagues deliberately subjected clients to an extremely stressful reliving of the initial trauma, to the point where they collapsed.
		Sargant's model of possession relates the experience to the release of accumulated tension, and if the experience does not culminate in exhaustion (it's own banishing) or collapse, then the effects of it may linger.

	Psychology of Brainwashing \| TIME
		The all-purpose key, according to Sargant, is to be found in the theories of Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849-1936), the Russian physiologist and would-be psychologist who proved that his famed "conditioned-reflex" dogs knew for whom the bell tolled, and why.
		A fourth way, and to Dr. Sargant the most important for human analogy, is to wear a dog dowri by subjecting it to excessive work (on a treadmill), upsetting its stomach with irregular feedings or bad food, or inducing a fever.
		Sargant took a flying leap to the conclusion that virtually any man's mind, if it cracks, will follow one of the behavior patterns that Pavlov thought he saw in dogs.

	Bibliochat: Battle for the Mind: A Physiology of Conversion and Brainwashing - William Sargant (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Sargant spells out and illustrates the basic techniques used by evangelists, psychiatrists, and brain-washers to disperse the patterns of belief and behavior already established in the minds of their hearers, and to substitute new patterns for them.
		Sargant makes use of the science that was available to him at his time, which is obviously sorely outdated - (Although I was impressed that he understood the inherente flaws in psychoanalysis).
		Again, Sargant can't be blamed for the time period in which he lived, but you don't have to waste your time reading this book.

	Inside the Sleep Room
		Sargant met with other psychiatrists who said that “a certain percentage” of the fl rioters in Detroit in 1967 had “brain damage” and that they “should be lobotomized to maintain social order.”
		Sargant, who had regarded Frank Olson as “steady as a rock” had told his colleagues in British intelligence that he feared Olson was about to go public.
		It was at Porton Down, in the depths of the English countryside—not far from one of the mansions Sargant used to indulge his sexual fantasies—that Sargant and Olson explored the use of mind-bending drugs.

		Sargant's ideas on mental and behavioural 'patterns' were to influence the notorious CIA funded Dr. Cameron, leading to malpractice disguised as treatment for schizophrenia.

	LaRouche in 2004 pamphlet Children of Satan III: The Beast-Men - Letter of Transmittal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Sargant was a prominent British Tavistock Institute psychiatrist, who spent two decades, beginning in the mid-1950s, working in the Congress for Cultural Freedom-linked Cybernetics Group/MK-Ultra project on the use of psychedelic drugs and other forms of brainwashing for mass coercion.
		The Sargant book drew the parallel between such primitive people under the influence of witch doctors, fundamentalist preachers and pagan gods, and the victims of the 1960s drug/rock/sex counterculture.
		One of the clear lessons to come out of the Sargant studies, and other similar profiling work by such Cybernetics Group/CCF players as Dr. Margaret Mead and her husband, LSD-experimenter Dr. Gregory Bateson, was that the most efficient means of promoting irrationalist cults was to exploit existing movements and subcultures.

		Sargant told me he believed Frank Olson had witnessed murder being committed with the various drugs he had prepared.

	The truthiness of the matter \| The San Diego Union-Tribune
		William Sargant, a leading British psychiatrist of the day, promoted the thought that LSD would lead to an “abreaction” or “catharsis” in which the subject would reveal information he had deliberately suppressed; further, Sargant claimed, new false beliefs could be implanted in subjects under LSD.
		The most disturbing aspect of Streatfeild's history is the work conducted by Sargant and others on combinations of drugs and sensory deprivation that kept “patients” – they were commonly under psychiatric care – in a state of near mental death for weeks and even months.
		The idea was to take people beyond the mere disorientation produced by brief periods of sensory deprivation to a state in which their minds were wiped virtually clean, brought as close as possible to the tabula rasa with which John Locke, the 17th-century philosopher, thought all minds began.

	Brainwashing and thought control in the news but far from new
		Sargant noted that the same observations that Pavlov made in dogs are also applicable to humans.
		Sargant, a religious man himself, illustrates this with the example of charismatic ministers of all faiths who are skillful at hooking their audience with emotionally-charged messages.
		Sargant says ministers are more likely "to achieve success if they can first induce some degree of nervous tension or stir up sufficient feelings of anger or anxiety to secure the person's undivided attention and possibly increase his suggestibility."

	Martin Cannon: Antecedents to MKULTRA
		Sargant does not hesitate to use the term "brainwashing" to describe the rites of the Oracle of Triphonius.
		According to William Sargant, the methodologies of religious conversion "often approximate so closely to modern political techniques of brain-washing and thought control that each throws light on the mechanics of the other." Sargant pays particular attention to the great English revivalist of the mid-18th century, John Wesley.
		His technique ("used," according to Sargant, "not only in many other successful religions but in modern political warfare") involved an all-out assault on the emotions, primarily the emotion of fear.

		The book was a sequel to his 1957 study, The Battle for the Mind: A Physiology of Conversion and Brainwashing, the earlier book being a how-to-do-it manual for producing a "cultural paradigm shift" towards an existentialist, irrationalist dark age society, which was precisely the agenda of the Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF).

	AIM25: Wellcome Library: Sargant, William Walters (1907-1988)
		Scope and content/abstract: Sargant was an outspoken supporter and practitioner of what he termed the 'practical rather than philosophical approaches' to the treatment of mental illness, pioneering and publicising various physical treatments and vociferously opposing the use of psychoanalytic techniques.
		Dr Dally reported that the material was in considerable disarray on arrival at her home and she subsequently grouped the majority of the papers into categories by subject, most of these representing either medical conditions or methods of treatment.
		Because of the nature of Sargant's work, attention is particularly drawn to the rule that readers shall not publish or communicate to any other person the names or other particulars of individuals named in records which contain information of a private or sensitive nature.
