To a generation completely revolt against any form of authority, "Listen in, start, drop out" became a mantra, and its own popularizer, Dr. Timothy Leary, a guru. A charismatic and brilliant psychologist, Leary became first intrigued and then obsessed by the consequences of psychedelic drugs in the 1960s while teaching at Harvard, where he not only encouraged but instituted their experimental use among students and faculty. What started as research into human consciousness converted into a mission to improve consciousness itself. Leary transformed himself from serious social scientist into counterculture shaman, embodying the idealism and the hedonism of the age of revolutionary change.Timothy Leary is the first major biography of 1 of the very most controversial figures in postwar America.
