Cancer brings about the cruelest irony known to man for in cancer the living conscious body can see itself growing wrong. In order to arrive at an understanding of this dread misdirected growth research workers in all the fundamental sciences have been called together to work in our cancer research institutions.

摘要:

The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization is concerned with something very intangible—the minds of men. Unesco's purpose is to create through education, science, and culture a climate favorable to world peace. It isnota little mental Security Council that comes running with a first aid kit to patch up each threat to the peace. It is the organization that looks into the basic causes for war and suggests remedies for their removal. It is Unesco's function to encourage and support (the latter of course within the narrow limitations of its budget) activities that contribute effectively toward the creation of good relations between peoples.

摘要:

In Rotterdam, Holland there is a three‐story apartment house, about one block long, with forty‐eight apartments. Except for a noticeable difference in types of windows, the general construction appears orthodox. But this building is a large, realistic field laboratory for studying the best possible methods of quieting and heating apartment buildings. Construction details differ from apartment to apartment. Each wall and each floor is, in effect, a test panel.

摘要:

About three hundred physicists from the Eastern region assembled on March 19 in Frick Chemical Laboratory on the Princeton Campus to listen to six addresses, and even more, to express, by their presence, their good wishes and their appreciation for what Albert Einstein has done for physics. The occasion was Dr. Einstein's seventieth birthday, which he quietly celebrated a few days before at his home.
