Debut issue of this magazine published by the Chicago-based Inter-State Narcotic Association ISNA an organization active in producing anti-marijuana and narcotics propaganda during the 1930s-1940s.

Subsequent articles like "Is Smoking More Injurious to Women Than Men" and "Why Women and Children Smoke" are offered by Dr. Bertha Van Hoosen and Gertrude Charny though the real highlight is "Alcohol: 50 Questions Answer Scientifically" which asks such inane questions as "What is alcohol" "What is meant by intoxicating" and "What is a poison".

1966ref. CAT0204New York: UPI Roto Service 1966. First Edition. Photocopy of a typed manuscript 8-½ x 11 in. 12 pp. printed recto only sl. chipping and toning at edges; together with an additional copy of the typed manuscript; a License to Use Your Head order form for Leary’s Future History book series no date; and seven of eight “Man of Visions” silver gelatin prints 8 x 10 in. each dated May 28 1966 with caption leaves and UPI Press stamps verso. Near Fine. Journalist Joe O’Sullivan visited Timothy Leary’s community in Millbrook New York twice in 1966. Following these visits he released two interviews with Leary on the UPI Roto Service. This interview unpublished and unrecorded in Leary’s bibliography is the second of the two interviews. The interview offers detailed descriptions of Leary’s daily life and providing an ordinary context for his controversial work. Leary gives laconic answers to O’Sullivan’s questions about drugs the counterculture free love Viet Nam sic and the communal life at Millbrook occasionally proffering a bit of unasked for advice including on the author’s children. “Let them turn you on … Treat them as little gods and goddesses.” The photos taken to accompany the first interview similarly reflect O’Sullivan’s interest in the mundane: e.g. poignant detailed vignettes of a shrine to Rosemary Woodruff soon to be Leary’s wife while she was doing jail time for marijuana possession. We find no evidence that either interview was ever published. The first article “Man of Visions” is referenced in our typescript’s caption and was “serviced to UPI Roto Service clients in the package of May 28 1966” the same date as the present photo-series which presumably accompanied it. Both articles would have appeared before Leary’s landmark Playboy interview was published in September 1966 which the annotated Leary bibliography lists as his first published interview Horowitz Walls & Smith D1 . Surprisingly there is no reference in Horowitz to either of the earlier O’Sullivan UPI articles though a short third article “God and Timothy Leary” was published in Dec. 1966 Howoritz et al. D3. Some of the photographs from “Man of Visions” are known from other sources a few seemingly unpublished. Materials are in excellent condition with minimal wear. UPI Roto Service unknown

ill., br. A dieci anni dalla sua prima pubblicazione, torna in un'edizione aggiornata e arricchita di nuovi contenuti esclusivi "The Heroin Diaries", il libro sulla dipendenza dalle droghe scritto da Nikki Sixx. Quando i Mötley Crüe erano all'apice del successo non c'era droga che Nikki non si sarebbe fatto. Il bassista trascorreva le sue giornate tra i fumi di uno sballo ininterrotto, alimentato da cocaina ed eroina. In queste pagine, il musicista condivide con il pubblico i suoi scritti - alcuni poetici, altri folli, altri ancora al limite dell'assurdo - e ripercorre con la memoria quei giorni. Assieme a lui raccontano la propria versione dei fatti personaggi del calibro di Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Mick Mars, Slash, Rick Nielsen, Bob Rock e un intero esercito di vecchi manager, ex fidanzate e amici. Con la sua onestà brutale, i suoi contenuti estremi e un'intensità a tratti commovente, "The Heroin Diaries" accompagna Nikki nel corso dell'anno durante il quale la rockstar ha davvero toccato il fondo - fino alla coraggiosa decisione di rialzarsi e ricominciare a vivere. Con oltre sessanta pagine di contenuti nuovi, fotografie a colori e una grafica che il New York Times ha definito "fra le più sconvolgenti mai viste su un libro", torna disponibile in Italia "The heroin diaries", una delle autobiografie rock più intense di sempre.
