An encore to Musings on Human Metamorphoses in which Leary delves deeper into his vision of "human future history." He likens human society to that of insect hives and shows how certain evolved evolutionary agents (mutants) are upsetting hive and causing it to evolve. Eventually we will become the aliens. The book describes the struggle between the forces moving into the future and those attempting to stop change. While most people associate Leary solely with LSD and debauchery, this fascinating discourse has little mention of drugs.
