“Mind control is so finely tuned in today’s world, that the best thing one can
do is learn the tricks. Jones and Flaxman provide exactly that in the most
comprehensive examination of the subject I’ve seen yet. From its pervasive use
in media and marketing, to being one of the darkest tools of the nefarious Elite.
If knowledge is power, then Mind Wars is mind control Kryptonite!”
—Greg Carlwood, host of conspiracy podcast, The Higherside Chats
“For those who think that the desire to control and know what you think at all
times is a new phenomena…think again! In their latest book, Marie D. Jones and
Larry Flaxman show that throughout history powers and principalities have
spied, manipulated and otherwise attempted to discern what we think in order to
harness the power of our minds. What is even scarier is what lies ahead! Within
a few short years, will technology render the concept of a private thought
obsolete? What evil could be done with this tremendous power? You’ll have to
read Mind Wars to find out. Don’t just think about it, buy this book today before
THEY say you can’t!”
—Jim Harold, president, Jim Harold Media LLC;
host of the Paranormal Podcast and Jim Harold’s Campfire;
author of Jim Harold’s Campfire: True Ghost Stories and True Ghost
Stories: Jim Harold’s Campfire 2

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Marie and Larry would like to thank Lisa Hagan, agent extraordinaire, for
always championing our work and being a good friend in the process. You are
the best! We would also like to thank Michael Pye and the team at New Page
Books for their ongoing belief in our vision and work, and to Warwick
Associates for their wonderful work publicizing our books to the world. And to
our readers and all those who hosted us on their radio shows and at events, thank
you so much. Without you, we are nothing. A huge thank you to Ron Patton,
Editor-in-Chief of Paranoia Magazine, for your input, direction, and research!
Thank you also to everyone who contributed to this book. Your input and
insights made it so much richer and we so appreciate you all.
Larry
I would like to express my gratitude to the many people who were
instrumental in helping to make this book possible. First, I’d like to thank my
mom and dad, whose boundless love, teachings, and ethos will remain with me
forever. I would give anything to travel back in time and relive all of the
moments where I thought that I knew better. I know that we will be reunited one
day, and look forward to the opportunity to listen and learn again. Without both
of you, I would not be here writing these words.
Thanks to my wife, Emily, for putting up with me and all of my
“eccentricities.” You are a wonderful mother, inspiration, and friend. Without
your seemingly endless amount of patience and understanding I would never
have had the ability to follow my dreams.
I want to give a special thanks to my partner in crime, Marie D. Jones.
Through the good, the bad, the thick, and the thin, we have stuck together and
put out some phenomenal books. While things haven’t always been easy, our
common goals have remained steadfast. Thank you for always pushing me to
fuel my own inner fire. You have provided inspiration beyond measure. Here’s
to another six and beyond!
to another six and beyond!
I would be remiss if I forgot to thank our wonderful publisher: New Page
Books. Thank you for believing in Marie and me enough to publish six of our
books. You guys have been great to work with and we look forward to the
future!
A special thanks to all of my friends, fans, and even critics that I have met
while on this journey. All of you help to keep me grounded and “real.”
Finally, and most importantly. A special thank you to my daughter, Mary
Essa (aka “The Honey”). You are truly the wind beneath my wings. Every time I
look at you I see absolute perfection. I would never in a million years have
believed that this level of love would be possible. I am so incredibly proud of
you and I look forward to a lifetime of adventure, exploration, and learning
together.
Marie
I would like to thank my mom, Milly, who is the best mom on the planet
hands down and still takes good care of me; my brother, John; and my dad, John,
who is up there in heaven cheering me on. My family rocks and they are always
there for me! To my sister and best friend, Angella, who is my rock and keeps
me sane—sort of! Thank you for everything!!! You are my hero with your
courage and ability to overcome huge challenges and stay snarky and wonderful!
I would like to thank everyone who has reached out to me about these books
or listened to me on radio, and I am so grateful for everyone who takes the time
to read what I write and contact me. My dear friends and colleagues, you all
keep me inspired and motivated more than I can ever express. Lisa Hagan, what
can I say? We just make such a great team and I love you dearly! We go wayyyy
back!
Ron Patton, this book would not exist without your support, suggestions,
expertise, and help, and I owe you so much for helping to research and contact
experts and keep the book on the right track. Your friendship and belief in me
and in this book are priceless and something I will never forget. Thank you for
being there.
Larry Flaxman, wow—seven years and…how many books and articles and
radio shows and events? How many e-mails and texts and messages and phone
calls? I lost track a long time ago, but I am eternally grateful for your constant
presence in my life and for having you as a partner and a friend. We’ve certainly
had our share of rough times, and yet, we still manage to pull through and “get
’er done,” and I think that is a testament to the deep bond we created all those
years ago when we said, “Hey, let’s form an alliance.” Some of the best
years ago when we said, “Hey, let’s form an alliance.” Some of the best
conversations of my life have been us on the phone for hours going back and
forth about some paranormal or scientific theory (which eventually turned into
books!). Here’s to a whole new direction and another seven years or more!
And most of all, to my heart and my soul, my universe, my sun and moon and
stars—Max. Without you, there is no point to any of this. I hope I make you
proud. You make me proud. You, my son, are my hero.
