 The Dosadi Experiment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In The Dosadi Experiment, McKie is bred to become a human legum of the Gowachin Bar, but exposure to Dosadi and its culture causes him to become 'more Dosadi than Dosadi' and turn the tables on his own handlers.
There are also interesting parallels between the society on Dosadi and that described by anthropologist Colin Turnbull in his book The Mountain People (written in 1972, 5 years before The Dosadi Experiment).
This novel is a sequel to Whipping Star.

 The Dosadi Experiment
This book has a 'prequel' of sorts in the Whipping Star that is also well-worth reading as an introduction to the Dosadi universe.
While it is by no means mandatory in order to enjoy this book, it provides a deeper experience.
McKie also appears in a short story in The Worlds of Frank Herbert.

 Review of several Frank Herbert novels.
Hellish planets as a testing ground are a recurrent theme of Herbert, but this time he probably creates the worst of them all : On Dosadi physical prowess and toughness is not nearly enough.
McKie is enlisted by the Gowachins to help them solve the Dosadi problem, but as he experiences Dosadi for himself, he begins to sympathize with the "prisoners", and especially with the warlord/warlady Keila Jedrik, a cunning woman who has formed herself into an instrument for the liberation of Dosadi and the punishment of its creators.
Conditions on Dosadi are then deliberately made as hellish as possible.

Will the people of Dosadi be loosed upon the rest of the complacent universe?
Dosadi is an experimental planet, where individuals from different species are forced into a pressure-cooker environment that either kills them or radically expands their capacities (it may remind you of Manhattan - it's even surrounded by a poison river).
An exceptional novel; this book introduces many races and characters.

 Dosadi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dosadi is enclosed by a barrier called the "God Wall" maintained by a Caleban.
The planet Dosadi is the hellish setting for Frank Herbert's science fiction novel The Dosadi Experiment.
The "High Command" responsible for the experiment feared what it created on Dosadi, and vowed to destroy the planet rather than let the test subjects escape.

 Sonabarrier by Frank Herbert from The Dosadi Experiment at Technovelgy.com
The city of Chu, which was the only city on all of Dosadi, was surrounded by rivers that were probably poisonous, like all of the natural life on the planet.
The Dosadi Experiment is a novel that frequently uses the notion of controls to keep people in a space (either physical or psychological).
This theme is picked up in the idea of an energy field that kept carrion-eating birds confined to a desired space.

 Frank Herbert's Sietch: Quotes from The Dosadi Experiment
This is what Dosadi says: Greed sets its own limits, is self-regulation.
Justice belongs to those who claim it, but let the claimant beware lest he create new injustice by his claim and thus set the bloody pendulum of revenge into its inexorable motion.
In the name of all that we together hold holy I promise three things to the sacred congregation of people who are subject to my rule.

But The Dosadi Experiment has something to say about humanity that is rarely discussed in print.
His only ally, Jedrik, is a local warlord who intends to kill him and use his death to escape Dosadi's confines.
At 333 pages, The Dosadi Experiment is a comfortable read, and Herbert's style, although at times a little over-dramatic, should keep the attention of any sci-fi (and legal!) enthusiast who likes to look over the good guy's shoulder while he battles the forces of evil.

 Porkrind Dot Org: Reviews: The Dosadi Experiment
This book reminded me a lot of Dune—the people of Dosadi (especially those in power) have a unique ability to read people, see what they are thinking, what their next move should be, and then act on it to force the hand of an opponent.
The Dosadi Experiment is about a planet set up as a grand but cruel experiment to test how a harsh environment can improve one’s abilities to read those around you and set yourself up for enhanced self-preservation.
The story is about Jorj McKie, a human from the Bureau of Sabotage sent to investigate the planet Dosadi.
