Summary

Tune in, turn on, drop out. So said Timothy Leary, global figurehead for '60s psychedelic culture and 'the most dangerous man in America' according to President Nixon. A psychologist at Harvard, Leary was forced to leave when he started to dedicate his efforts to researching LSD and other psychedelic drugs, a vocation which changed an entire generation. John Higgs' incredible biography reveals the stranger-than-fiction true story of one of the most divisive figures of the twentieth century.

Look no further!

The best Leary biography I've listened to, as expected from the brilliant Mr Higgs!
Comprehensive and authoritative

Too many chapters dedicated to Tabloid-like detail

As the title states, felt there was too much padding out with detail that was really not interesting, I kind of lost interest in it all about 5-6 chapters from the end..
