Neuropolitics : the sociobiology of human metamorphosis

Timothy Leary, who died back in 1996, wrote in this book published in 1977 that we would have attained "immortality" or "eternal life" through scientific means by now. He even speculates that we could have pulled this off by the 1980's if we had wished hard enough. What a pile of nonsense on stilts.

Timothy Leary, Ph.D. has been a world-renowned psychologist, a defrocked Harvard professor, a relentless champion of brain change, a reputed drug guru, a stand-up philosopher, and a prisoner of the Nixon administration. He has been called 'the most dangerous man on the planet.' While in prison, at time in solitary confinement, he wrote the first version of this book. ("I must confess that at that time I was alienated, a bit daft and given to occasional fits of irritation. So color the first version of this book indigo—as in Jail House Blues.") Now revised and updated, Neuropolitique presents some of Dr. Leary's best ideas, his reflections on the past and his hope for the future.
