I really don't care for Ronson's style. Good lord, summarise. A frightening amount of the audibook is him regurgitating interview transcripts (he said, I said, he said, ad nausuem) in a way that I can only describe as grating. Maybe it was supposed to be comedic, I just didn't find it at all funny. If anything I felt he was being quite glib when talking about torture.
As an investigation, I still don't get it. How would remote viewing or subliminal messaging even begin to actually work? I have no idea, Ronson never bothered to interview any independent experts to ask. Instead, he interviews various military types ranging from the secretive to the delusional. One of the first ones was with Uri Geller of all people 'being activated'. It was downhill from there.
