Bestselling author Stephen Kinzer tells the astonishing story of the CIA agent who oversaw the CIA’s illegal mind-control and drug experiments of the 1950s and ’60s.

The demented visionary chemist Sidney Gottlieb was the CIA’s master magician and gentlehearted torturer — the Company's agency’s “poisoner in chief.”
As head of the MK-ULTRA mind control project [previously laughed at as a ridiculous "conspiracy theory" but not taken for granted as all true], Gottlieb directed brutal experiments at secret prisons on three continents.
As head of the MK-ULTRA mind control project [previously laughed at as a ridiculous "conspiracy theory" but not taken for granted as all true], Gottlieb directed brutal experiments at secret prisons on three continents.
The CIA made pills, powders, and potions to kill and maim without a trace — including some intended for Fidel Castro and other foreign leaders the USA and/or CIA wanted murdered.
Gottlieb paid prostitutes to lure clients to CIA-run whorehouses, where they were secretly dosed with mind-altering drugs.
The CIA's experiments spread LSD across the USA, making Gottlieb a hidden godfather of the 1960s counterculture.
For years this CIA agent was the chief supplier of weapons and spy "tools" used by CIA officers around the world.
Stephen Kinzer, author of groundbreaking books about U.S. clandestine operations, draws on new documentary research and original interviews to bring to life one of the most powerful unknown Americans of the 20th century.
Agent Gottlieb’s reckless and Nazi-like experiments on “expendable” human subjects destroyed many lives, yet he considered himself deeply spiritual:
He lived in a remote cabin without running water, meditated, and rose before dawn to milk his goats [studied Mahayana Buddhism and no doubt took acid himself].

During his 22 years with the CIA, Gottlieb worked in the deepest secrecy. Only since his death has it become possible to piece together his astonishing career at the intersection of extreme science and covert action. Poisoner in Chief reveals him as a clandestine conjurer on an epic scale.
