  First published in 1895, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind remains one of the most influential works on mass psychology and the behavior of crowds. Gustave Le Bon’s groundbreaking analysis explores how individuals, when part of a crowd, surrender their rationality and adopt a collective mindset driven by emotion, impulse, and unconscious influence. 
  Le Bon’s insights have shaped the fields of psychology, sociology, and political science, influencing figures from Freud to modern strategists of propaganda and mass persuasion. He dissects how crowds think, how they are swayed by leaders, and how collective behavior can lead to both progress and destruction.Key Topics Covered: 
  ✔️ How individuals lose autonomy within crowds 
  ✔️ The psychological mechanisms behind mass movements 
  ✔️ The power of suggestion and emotional contagion 
  ✔️ How leaders manipulate crowds to achieve their goals 
  ✔️ The role of crowd psychology in revolutions, politics, and social change 
  A must-listen for those interested in history, social psychology, politics, and the forces that shape public opinion.

  This collection of short essays examines the place of women in the history of psychedelics. 
   
   
   
  While some of the subjects are pioneers in their own right, the authors in this collection go beyond merely adding women to the past in psychedelic history, exploring some of the significant ways that women have contributed to psychedelic knowledge. 
   
   
   
  Blending historical and anthropological approaches with a series of captivating interviews, this collection taps into women's networks around the world throughout the twentieth century. It reveals some of the sophisticated and creative ways women have influenced our understanding of psychedelics and how they will continue to protect these stories as we face our psychedelic future. Our collection intentionally moves beyond an American set of stories, teasing out networks in Latin America. This collection brings together authors from the Chacruna Institute and Chacruna Latinamérica to engage listeners in conversations that move across time and place throughout the Americas. It is the first of its kind to balance non-English contributions through translation of stories exploring different cultural contexts outside the United States, where women have contributed to this enduring history.

  Hear a rare recording from 1939 of Charles A. Lindbergh speaking out against American involvement in Foreign Wars. He states that the Americans should not be asked to fight in foreign countries, but to focus on defense of the United States. Among other things, Lindbergh says: "The doctrine that we must enter the wars of Europe, in order to defend America, will be fatal to our Nation, if we follow it. When men are called upon to fight, and to die, for their country, there must not be even the remotest question of foreign influence." involved." He states that Americans have no confidence in decisions of their leaders. He talks about the high number of aircraft and war material manufactured to fight in European countries. And he likens the current spending for armaments to the National debt. 
   
  Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 – August 26, 1974), was an American aviator, author, inventor, military officer, explorer, and social activist. As a 25-year-old U.S. Air Mail pilot, Lindbergh emerged suddenly from virtual obscurity to instantaneous world fame as the result of his Orteig Prize-winning solo nonstop flight on May 20–21, 1927, made from the Roosevelt Field[N 1] in Garden City on New York's Long Island to Le Bourget Field in Paris, France, a distance of nearly 3,600 statute miles (5,800 km), in the single-seat, single-engine, purpose-built Ryan monoplane Spirit of St. Louis. As a result of this flight, Lindbergh was the first person in history to be in New York one day and Paris the next. The record setting flight took 33 hours and 30 minutes. Lindbergh, a U.S. Army Air Corps Reserve officer, was also awarded the nation's highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his historic exploit.
