Birth of a Psychedelic Culture: Conversations about Leary, the Harvard Experiments, Millbrook, and the Sixties No understanding of the history of the sixties could ever be complete without a grasp of the work of Timothy Leary and his chief lieutenants, Richard Albert (later Ram Dass) and Ralph Metzner. A clear evolution is painted: from the carefully controlled scientific explorations and academic background of the early phase beginning at Harvard; to the middle years in Mexico and at Millbrook in upstate New York; to the complex and confusing issue of the psychedelic movement. The detailed descriptions of their specific drug journeys, along with insights about the various substances they ingested, are particularly interesting.
