Intelligence agencies have long sought ways to control the mind to get people to do their bidding. An author discusses his investigation into CIA mind control efforts in the 1950’s and 60’s through the use of psychedelic drugs, which unwittingly led to an explosion of the drugs’ use.
Guests:
Stephen Kinzer, Senior Fellow, Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs, Brown Univ. and author, Poisoner In Chief: Sidney Gottlieb and the CIA Search for Mind Control
