Sample Book Insights:

#1 Sidney Gottlieb was a psychic voyager who spent his career deep inside Washington’s secret world. He retired in 1973 and spent the second half of the twentieth century traveling the world and helping the needy. But in 1975, he was summoned home and had to defend himself against accusations of mind control.

#2 After his death, Gottlieb faded into obscurity. He was known as the dark sorcerer for his conjuring in the most sinister recesses of the CIA, and he was also named the maddest mad scientist in a book about the world’s worst people, places, and things.

#3 Sidney Gottlieb, the man who developed the CIA’s mind-control drugs, grew up in the Bronx. His family was Jewish, and they escaped oppression in Europe. They settled in America, and Gottlieb learned Hebrew, had a bar mitzvah, and studied hard.

#4 Sidney Gottlieb was a teenager in New York who was ostracized for his disability, but he emerged determined to excel. He studied advanced German and won high grades in math, physics, and chemistry. He took two courses in public speaking, and he was able to walk without braces for the first time at the age of twelve.
