Opis

Tells the story of how the US and its allies subjected thousands of their own servicemen to poison gas as part of their preparation for chemical warfare. The book also reveals the racialized dimension of these experiments, as scientists tested whether the effects of toxic exposure might vary between Asian, Hispanic, black, and white Americans.
