Dr Gerald Davidson Was Jennifer's uncle?

I got a request for the proposal and sample chapters today

[Anonymous]

Now I have to write them

[Anonymous]

Found this

Dederich liked the idea. He had the Harvard boys to develop it. Howard Garfield, the boy legal genius and divinity student, and Steve Simon who had researched Synanon’s history.

Steve Simon sounds like he was in the psychology department, and Davidson was staff then

Interesting.

The proposal wasn't ready on time. It is now. I'm going to start querying. A publisher would have better research people than me

Solomon Asch, born in Warsaw, moved to the United States in l920, received his Ph.D. from Columbia University, taught at Brooklyn College, the New School for Social Research, and Swarthmore College, held visiting posts at Harvard and MIT and in l957 served as president of the Division of Personality and Social Psychology of the American Psychological Association and as Chairman of its Committee on Academic Freedom. He was associate editor of Psychological Review from 1957 to 1962 and awarded the Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award from the American Psychological Association in 1967.

“The results, as seen and felt in the laboratory, are to this author disturbing. They raise the possibility that human nature, or, more specifically, the kind of character produced in American society cannot be counted on to insulate the citizens from brutality and inhumane treatment at the direction of malevolent authority.”

 The American Association for the Advancement of Science awarded Milgram for his life’s work in the area of obedience. One of his biggest fans was Charles Dederich.

Romney still wanted to pursue a business path, but his father, by now serving in President Richard Nixon's cabinet as U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, advised that a law degree would be valuable.[35] Thus Romney became one of only 15 students to enroll at the recently created joint Juris Doctor/Master of Business Administration four-year program coordinated between Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School.[36] Fellow students noted Romney's strong work ethic and buttoned-down appearance;[36] he lived in a Belmont, Massachusetts house with Ann and by now two children.[28] He graduated in 1975 cum laude from the law school, in the top third of that class, and was named a Baker Scholar for graduating in the top five percent of his business school class.[32][36]

I'd like to know who the other 14 students were

It would be interesting to see how many Harvard men made billions when Davidson told them, sick as it was, Elan worked. Not just from TTI kids, but from mentally ill and autistic ones. Bain is worth 65 billion. That's nothing. The money is always in the treatment, and even the ones who did well were lifers. The program guaranteed it. These cool college men guaranteed their futures by sacrificing kids. I'm still on this. The people behind Mel Sembler and Miller Newton are my next project

n 1958 Dr. DuPont earned his BA from Emory University and in 1963 earned his M.D. from Harvard Medical School. He completed training at Harvard and the National Institutes of Health. He worked for the District of Columbia Department of Corrections and in 1970 for the DC Narcotics Treatment Administration.[5] Since 1980 he has been a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the Georgetown University School of Medicine.

Robert L. DuPont, Jr., MD is the founding director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and is also the second White House Drug Czar. While director of NIDA he administered funds for an experimental, juvenile drug rehabilitation program in Fort Lauderdale, Florida called The Seed.

http://http://thestraights.com/theprogram/synanon-story2.htm

Despite this, despite the warnings of so many other notables, despite Art Barker's total lack of credentials and less than admirable past, The Seed received a $1.8 million U.S. government grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) soon after it opened. And the grant had been administered by the founding director of NIDA who also happened to be the second White House Drug Czar-Robert DuPont. By 1975 Barker had opened four expansion Seeds, but in 1974 both houses of the US Congress had investigated The Seed and produced critical reports with the US Senate likening Barker's methods to the brainwashing methods employed on American POWs by North Korean Communists.

Tell me when this gets boring

For example, just after Elan opened in 1971 Davidson did an interview for U.S. News And World Report.  He said: "Therapeutic communities largely are run by ex-addicts who have become extremely sanctimonious, like all converted heathen. So the communities frequently are set up in some ways reminiscent  of concentration camps. They shave their patients heads, make them wear diapers, hang degrading signs on them, things like that. In our therapeutic community we do not do this. Our approach is to build self-esteem, and regard for others. We treat one another like responsible human beings. Our residents respond in fashion, and we have no trouble whatever with people leaving."

I need to look into DARTEC

BF Skinner seems to be the common link.

He is certainly someone who figured prominently in Matthew Israel's "philosophy."

How prominently did he figure in Gerald Davidson's?

Fwiw, Skinner was one of those research scientists who was the recipient of CIA grants. I've not researched this much at all. I've no idea of how much or how little, or even whether he was aware of their source. Some scientists were kept in ignorance.

I'd like to know where to start looking for this

At the very least this thread is intriguing as hell. To us.

The rest of the world knows this industry exists. They're waiting for someone to write it

I have three proposals and two chapters for all of them and I don't like any of them

I wish whoever writes this all the success in the world. I can't figure it out

You have access to his academic writings?  If not, see if you can get access to a university library that will have the journals.  If possible, see if you can locate his master's and doctor's thesis (you'll likely have more luck with his doctor's thesis.)  What you would then be looking at is whether he addresses any colleagues of BF Skinner with them.  A direct address is a gold nugget, but a close colleague of the man might be enough to explore.

I'm going to keep looking because I want to know, but as far as the story being told, I can't think of a way it would work
