THE INTELLIGENCE AGENTS - By TIMOTHY LEARY - Published by PEACE PRESS in 1979 - FIRST Printing Quality Paperbound Book - 7" x 9 7/8" - 214 pages - The first page in the book (featuring an illustration of Barbara Leary) features a beautiful, flowing, cursive, black ballpoint pen ink HAND SIGNATURE by TIMOTHY LEARY addressed to the consignee "To Dave" - Dr. Leary hand signed this book for the consignee at a New Age Fair in Spokane WA on May 19th, 1991 - Has some minor shelf wear along with very light toning at the paper edges, 7/16" clean split at both the lower left corner and the upper left corner of the front cover, small dings at cover corners, etc - Spine is tight! - Nice B+ B/B+ or so condition overall (See scans) - Hand signed first printing copies of this book are fairly scarce!
"The Intelligence Agents is a collection of memos, articles, and pictures written in "future history" reflecting life on planet earth during Leary's lifespan. A work of social, moral, religious and scientific satire, including articles by and about people who are changing the meaning of freedom all over the world, this is the fifth and final volume of Dr. Leary's 'Future History Series' with lots of fun pictures and ideas for your brain!"
"Dr. Timothy Leary, in his own chaotic style, recapitulates evolution from the first organism in which life began in the Eastern Oriental shorelines. DNA, the breath of life is always chasing the Sun Westward towards our neurological destiny. If you are familiar with Dr. Leary's 24 Stage/8 Neuro-Circuit theory, then you will get a rise from this book. We have migrated from Asia to California as the launching pad into space where we will create H.O.M.E.s (High Oribtal Mini-Earths). The Intelligence Agents have already established their homes in future hive colonies. The secret to becoming an Intelligence Agent and Intelligence Increase is to SMILE (Space Migration Intelligence Increase Life Extension -- the 'I' is squared)." - Extracted from the bookshop.org "Intelligence Agents" page.
From the goodreads.com "Intelligence Agents" page:A world-renowned psychologist, a defrocked Harvard professor, a relentless champion of brain-change, a reputed drug guru, a stand-up philosopher, a prisoner of the Nixon administration - Dr Leary has been called the most dangerous man on the planet.

Extracted from the goodreads.com "The Politics of Ecstasy" page:Writings that sparkle with the psychedelic revolution. The Politics of Ecstasy is Timothy Leary's most provocative and influential exploration of human consciousness, written during the period from his Harvard days to the Summer of Love. Includes his early pronouncements on the psychedelic movement and his views on social and political ramifications of psychedelic and mystical experience.
Here is the outspoken Playboy interview revealing the sexual power of LSD-a statement that many believe played a key role in provoking Leary's incarceration by the authorities; an early outline of the neurological theory that became Leary's classic eight-circuit model of the human nervous system; an insightful exploration of the life and work of novelist Hermann Hesse; an effervescent dialogue with humorist Paul Krassner; and an impassioned defense of what Leary called "The Fifth Freedom"-the right to get high.
