He made pills, powders, and potions that could kill or maim without a trace, and he secretly dosed unsuspecting American citizens with mind-altering drugs. His experiments spread LSD across the United States, making him a hidden godfather of the 1960s counterculture, and he was also the chief supplier of spy tools used by CIA officers around the world.Stephen Kinzer, the author of groundbreaking books about U.S. clandestine operations, draws on new documentary research and original interviews to bring to life one of the most powerful unknown Americans of the twentieth century. And in a new afterword, he brings to light newly revealed stories about Gottlieb’s astonishing career at the intersection of extreme science and covert action.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
