Birth of a Psychedelic Culture: an afternoon with Ralph Metzner

The Sage Institute and Moby Dickens Bookshop

invite you for an afternoon with Ralph Metzner

 

Pioneering psychologist Ralph Metzner will discuss his recent memoir collaboration with Ram Dass:

Birth of a Psychedelic Culture: Conversation 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 Leary, Alpert and Metzner, the cultural resistance to their experiments,

and the way in which psychoactive drug use became a part of contemporary society.
