It is the 60s - yes it is magic, sex, drugs and rock and roll.
Uncovers the 1960s Love Generation roots in occultism and satanism. In
The Dedalus Book of the 1960s: Turn Off Your Mind, Gary Lachman
uncovers the Love Generation's roots in occultism and explores the
dark side of the Age of Aquarius. His provocative revision of the
1960s counterculture links Flower Power to mystical fascism, and
follows the magical current that enveloped luminaries like the
Beatles, Timothy Leary and the Rolling Stones, and darker stars like
Charles Manson, Anton LaVey, and the Process Church of the Final
Judgment. Acclaimed by satanists and fundamentalist Christians alike,
this edition includes a revised text incorporating new material on the
'suicide cult' surrounding Carlos Castaneda; the hippy serial killer
Charles Sobhraj; the strange case of Ira Einhorn, 'the Unicorn'; the
CIA and ESP; the new millennialism and more. From H.P. Lovecraft to
the Hell's Angels, find out how the Morning of the Magicians became
the Night of the Living Dead.
