Jon Ronson "The Men Who Stare at Goats"

The U.S. military is on a perpetual quest for ever more effective and sophisticated tools of warfare -- including psychic phenomena, and even what we might describe as supernatural powers, such as the ability to walk through walls, or to kill by simply staring at someone. Don't laugh; Jon Ronson did not make this up, for his book The Men Who Stare at Goats.
