2017rif. 29634Boston:: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 2017. Third Printing of the First Edition. A Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. The Nazi regime preached an ideology of physical mental and moral purity. But as Norman Ohler reveals in this gripping new history the Third Reich was saturated with drugs. On the eve of World War II Germany was a pharmaceutical powerhouse and companies such as Merck and Bayer cooked up cocaine opiates and most of all methamphetamines to be consumed by everyone from factory workers to housewives to millions of German soldiers. In fact troops regularly took rations of a form of crystal meth—the elevated energy and feelings of invincibility associated with the high even help to explain certain German military victories. While drugs alone cannot explain the Nazis’ toxic racial theories or the events of World War II Ohler’s investigation makes an overwhelming case that if drugs are not taken into account our understanding of the Third Reich is fundamentally incomplete.

In addition to Leary Frank Barron of the Harvard psychology department and author Aldous Huxley were also invited to speak.Huxley's lecture was entitled "Visionary Experience"; it was delivered earlier than Leary's and concludes with a reference to Leary's upcoming lecture "We shall hear from Dr. Leary about the induction of such experiences by such substances as psilocybin". Barron's talk contains the first reference in print to his "commending the mushroom to the attention of Dr. Leary who immediately seized upon its possibilities as a vehicle for inducing change in behavior as a result of the altered state of consciousness which the drug produced" HOROWITZ WALLS & SMITH AA23D. Huxley who had written extensively about his psychedelic experiences under the influence of mescaline in Doors of Perception 1954 here writes about the pursuit of the visionary experience as a vehicle for change and a more beautiful reality. He elaborates on the various methods of access to the visionary world including spontaneous induced and chemical access with separate sections on the usage of mushrooms and how light can enhance the visionary experience.
