"Scientific societies are as yet in their infancy. . . . It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries.

": Bertrand Russell, "The Impact of Science on Society", 1953, pg 49-50"
