Notes

Leary, an American psychologist, writer, and former professor at University of California, Berkeley, was best known for his advocacy of psychedelic drugs. In 1974, while in prison, Leary authored Terra II: A Way Out, which advocated space colonization. In this lecture, Leary discusses the changes in American life from the 1950s to the present. Now, having developed mind, body, and spiritual consciousness, the author feels that it is the duty of the human race to leave the confines of Earth and to establish space colonies.
