Info-psychology

Dr. Leary explores the real issues of our time—Space Migration, Intelligence Increase and Life Extension—in this manual on the use of the human nervous system according to the instructions of the manufacturers.

"The Info-Worlds our species will discover, create, explore and inhabit in the immediate future will not be reached from launch pads alone, but also through our personal computer screens."

Timothy Leary, Ph.D., was a respected Harvard psychology professor who became a guru for hundreds of thousands of people, espousing the use of the powerful hallucinogen LSD and other mind-altering drugs as a means of brain change. After he was forced out of academia, Leary became associated with many of the great names of the time, including Aldous Huxley, Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs and Charlie Mingus. In the mid-1960s, his fame grew to international proportions. He was targeted as "the most dangerous man in America" by the U.S. government and given a 10-year sentence for possession of marijuana. After he was released from prison, he continued to advocate brain-change through various means, including computer software. He acted in a number of movies, and was well-regarded as a stand-up comedian/philosopher. He died of cancer in 1996.
