Factories of Death: Japanese Biological Warfare 1932-45 and the American Cover-up Book

This controversial investigation presents new evidence that Japanese scientists in Manchuria conducted numerous experiments on live human beings. Harris also reveals that after the war the U.S. army granted the scientists immunity from investigation for war crimes in return for the results of their experiments. Harris conducted rigorous fieldwork and research in China to confirm his explosive findings. He obtained access to U.S. archives and KGB files which have never before been available to researchers. His book uncovers sensitive questions about which scientists were involved in the experiments and who in the upper echelons of the Japanese army and political establishment knew of them. It investigates the claim that allied POWs were subjected to experimentation and explores the nature of the deal that the scientists struck with U.S. occupation authorities after the war. New to the paperback are a preface and 8 pages of black and white photos.Read More
