  • Background to the Celebration of Herbert D. Kleber (1904 -2018) by Thomas A
    1 Background to the Celebration of Herbert D. Kleber (1904 -2018) by Thomas A. Ban By the mid-1990s the pioneering generation in neuropsychopharmacology was fading away. To preserve their legacy the late Oakley Ray (1931-2007), at the time Secretary of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ACNP), generated funds from Solway Pharmaceuticals for the founding of the ACNP-Solway Archives in Neuropsychopharmacology. Ray also arranged for the videotaping of interviews (mainly by their peers) with the pioneers, mostly at annual meetings, to be stored in the archives. Herbert Kleber was interviewed by Andrea Tone, a medical historian at the Annual Meeting of the College held in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on December 7, 2003 (Ban 2011a; Kleber 2011a). The endeavor that was to become known as the “oral history project” is based on 235 videotaped interviews conducted by 66 interviewers with 213 interviewees which, on the basis of their content, were divided and edited into a 10-volume series produced by Thomas A. Ban, in collaboration with nine colleagues who were to become volume editors. One of them, Herbert Kleber, was responsible for the editing of Volume Six, dedicated to Addiction (Kleber 2011b). The series was published by the ACNP with the title “An Oral History of Neuropsychopharmacology Peer Interviews The First Fifty Years” and released at the 50th Anniversary Meeting of the College in 2011 (Ban 2011b). Herbert Daniel Kleber was born January 19, 1934, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. His family’s father’s side was from Vilnius, Lithuania, and the Mother’s side was from Germany. Both families came to the United State during the first decade of the 20th century.

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

  • Making Addiction a Brain Disease: a Social History of Addiction Neuroscience
    Making Addiction a Brain Disease: A Social History of Addiction Neuroscience Nancy D. Campbell, Ph.D. Jerome H. Jaffe . I have fought this issue of “relapsing brain disorder” since somebody decided that this is the current mantra. The model of dependence that we favor is a complex interplay between environment and what may very well be a long- lasting sense of greater sensitivity to drug- related stimuli. Obviously, to the extent that aspects of drug dependence involve learning and changed responsivity to stimuli there are changes in the brain. The Opium Problem (1928) Death in morphin [sic] poisoning is a brain death. The central nervous system is the most severely affected in morphin poisoning. The alterations in this, because of their intensity and regular occurrence, are in the foreground of the pathologico-anatomic picture of poisoning. Death in morphin [sic] poisoning is a brain death. In the most acute form of poisoning, distinct brain alterations are already apparent . a matter of a chronic brain process, which had been going on for some time, overlaid by acute alterations.” W. Weimann, Zur pathologischen Anatomie der akuten und chronischen Morphiumvergiftung, Medezin 1926, v. 8, pp. 205-220; translated and quoted in Terry and Pellens, p. 290. His brain has become addicted, but not his liver The medical interest lies in the fact of the man accustomed to a poison becoming sick. He is sick because the poison taken habitually, while it fixes certain cells and confers on them increased activity or passivity, also renders these or other cells unserviceable for other functions, non-resistant to other influences.

  • Relationships of Psychotomimetic to Anti-Serotonin Potencies Of
    Psyehopharmacologia 1, 20--28 (1959) National Institute of Mental Health, Addiction Research Center, U. S. Public Health Service, Lexington, Kentucky Relationships of Psyehotomimetic to Anti-Serotonin Poten- cies of Congeners of Lysergie Acid Diethylamide (LSD-25) By HARRIS ISBELL, E. J. MINER und C. R. L0~AN (Received January 2, 1959) It has been postulated that LSD induces a psychosis by creating a relative deficiency of serotonin within the brain (GADDUM 1953; WOOL]~Y and SHAW 1954a). The converse hypothesis--that LSD creates a psychosis by acting like serotonin in brain--has also been formulated (Woo~EY and S~Aw ]954b; I~I~ALDI et al. 1956). Evidence for and against both hypotheses has recently been reviewed (PAGE 1958). Serious doubt of the validity of the deficiency hypothesis was created by the finding that D-2-Brom-diethylamide of lysergic acid (BOL-148), which is as potent or more potent than LSD in blocking serotonin in isolated smooth muscle preparations, was not a psychotomimetic drug (CE~L]~TTI and I~OTHL]N 1955; ROTI~LI~ 1957), or only a very weak one (ScH~ECKLOTg et. al. 1957). Availability of a number of congeners of LSD-25 with varying potencies as antagonists of serotonin on isolated uterine muscle of the rat made possible a more detailed examination of the relationship of potency of drugs of this type as serotonin ant- agonists to potency as psychotomimetics. In addition, availability of these compounds provided an opportunity to study the relationship of chemical alterations in the LSD molecule to psychotomimetic effect. Methods Drugs. The congeners of LSD studied 1 are listed in Table 2, which also shows the code designations of the various substances.
