Description
Reich originally published this 64-page digest in April 1952 as Volume 4, Number 2 of the Orgone Energy Bulletin. This is essentially a laboratory manual for performing the three-part Reich Blood Test–i.e., a diagnostic for the early detection of disease processes in the body–derived from Reich’s cancer course at Orgonon in July and August 1950.
The Reich Blood Test comprises (1) The Microscopic Test (2) The Autoclavation Test and (3) The Blood Culture Test.
This publication includes pages of photographs from Reich’s time-lapse films documenting the development of bions, T-bacilli [a virulent form of bion–the T stands for Tod, the German word for death] and cancer cells. There are also pages of Reich’s drawings depicting these biological processes, which are easy for the average reader to follow.
Together with Reich’s 1948 book The Cancer Biopathy, this is one of the most valuable primary materials about Reich’s cancer research and the practical application of his laboratory and clinical findings.
