This is a collection of memoirs dedicated to one of those people whose characteristics do not fit into one definition. Who is Timothy Leary - a dangerous madman, an unacknowledged prophet, an irresponsible pseudo-scientist, a genius ahead of his time, a criminal or an ignorant charlatan? Just as Leary's list of hobbies is varied - from meditation to Tarot cards, from magic to psychobiochemistry, from the Internet to sacred Tibetan texts - so is the list of people close to him, among whom are scientists, politicians, Hollywood stars, entrepreneurs and musicians. They all remember Timothy, paying tribute to this extraordinary figure who challenged all the taboos of American society.
