Japan's Infamous Unit 731: Firsthand Accounts of Japan's Wartime Human Experimentation ProgramThis is a riveting and disturbing account of the medical atrocities performed in China during WWII. Some of the cruelest deeds of Japan's war in Asia did not occur on the battlefield, but in quiet, antiseptic medical wards in obscure parts of China. Far from front lines and prying eyes, Japanese doctors and their assistants subjected human guinea pigs to gruesome medical experiments in the name of science and Japan's wartime chemical and biological
This is a riveting and disturbing account of the medical atrocities performed in China during WWII. Some of the cruelest deeds of Japan's war in Asia did not occur on the battlefield, but in quiet, antiseptic medical wards in obscure parts of China. Far from front lines and prying eyes, Japanese doctors and their assistants subjected human guinea pigs to gruesome medical experiments in the name of science and Japan's wartime chemical and biological warfare research. Author Hal Gold draws upon a wealth of sources to construct a portrait of the Imperial Japanese Army's most notorious medical unit, giving an overview of its history and detailing its most shocking activities. The book presents the words of former unit members themselves, taken from remarks they made at a traveling Unit 731 exhibition held in Japan in 1994-95. They recount vivid first-hand memories of what it was like to take part in horrific experiments on men, women and children, their motivations and reasons why they chose to speak about their actions all these years later. A new foreword by historian Yuma Totani examines the actions of Unit 731, the post-war response by the Allies and the lasting importance of the book. Japan's Infamous Unit 731 represents an essential addition to the growing body of literature on the still unfolding story of some of the most infamous war crimes in modem military history. By showing how the ethics of normal men and women, and even an entire profession, can be warped by the fire of war, this important book offers a window on a time of human madness and the hope that history will not be repeated.Binding Type: Paperback

Wow!
Format: Kindle
I picked 5 stars because this was the book I've been searching for! I have been on a quest for enlightenment and spiritual growth for years. And needed a way to wash away the heavy feelings and the "stuck" I was feeling. And wanted to know why the same events kept happening to me. And in just a few pages I was instructed on how to reach the records with ease. I have been in the records a few times now. And have been amazed at what I learned about myself. I thought seeing the patterns would be hard. But it's not. All the information in that moment is right there. And as you unwind the karma allowing, surrender and begin to heal instantly other events that you had the same pattern happening shows up too. And even deeper healing happens. I am now well on my way. After just a few trips to the records I can already feel the positive changes happening. I no longer feel that heavy stuck feeling. I have finally found the peace, love and joy I've been missing in my life. And I think everyone should learn how to do this. For this world and the billions of people who live here needs more love now more than ever. Thank you Melissa for writing a book so easy to use and understand.
Love and Light,
Peace and Love to all.

Great resource for any student, young or old. Solid advice and support continues with bonuses after you read with links and resources. Even some one on one with the author, worth much more than the initial cost of the book. Very informative and uplifting. The author wants to make your career choice path easier. A must have for college bound students. It’s like finding a treasure map to all the right ideas! Front to back a super read. I purchased the physical copy and plan to share it with a high school student.
