This timely book, Timothy Leary's "cyberpunk manifesto," is his
future-vision of the emergence of a new humanism with an emphasis
on questioning authority, independent thinking, individual
creativity, and empowerment via computers and brain technologies.
"Cyberpunks" brings together some of Leary's most provocative
writings, along with selections from interviews and conversations
with a variety of writers and thinkers. Individual chapters include
"How I Became an Amphibian," "Personal Computers; Personal
Freedom," and "Navigational Game Plane." "How to Boot Up Your
Bio-Computer" typifies Leary's outrageous yet surprisingly grounded
ideas, linking pagan, nature-based rituals with a "collective
boot-up" of the brain through stimulation from certain natural
plants. Together, these pieces describe a new breed of human being
who embraces technology, uses it to revolutionize communication and
evade and annoy Big Brother, while at the same time achieving
personal success, attaining political power, and above all, having
fun.
