A Brief History of Vice
A celebration of the brave, drunken pioneers who built our civilization one seemingly bad decision at a time, A Brief History of Vice explores a side of the past that mainstream history books prefer to hide.

Porton Down, the oldest chemical warfare station in the world, holds one of Britain's most chilling secrets - since 1916, more than 25,000 human subjects have taken part in Porton's controversial experiments, a series of tests that has involved nerve gas, mustard gas, tear gas, even LSD and other mind-bending drugs. In his ground-breaking study, author Rob Evans painstakingly reveals the truth of what has gone on behind the barbed wire and 'keep out' signs - the appalling facts of the tests, the ethics both of the experiments and the 'volunteer' process, the motivations of the scientists, the subsequent side-effects the human guinea-pigs have suffered, and their on-going fight for compensation.
