Very Good, not far from Near Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science, 1973. The November, 1973 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. ""Science and Public Affairs"" time period. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - is not at this time period on the cover, but shows as twelve minutes to midnight on the contents page. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 56 pp. Very Good, plus some; no salient flaws. Essentially flawless but for modest spots of external touch-wear and a front-cover subscriber mailing label to a Hampshire College professor. Contents are immaculate. See all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of ""'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change, and emerging technologies and diseases"". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Some feature topics and contributors in this vintage 1973 issue: Carl Sagan, Space Exploration as a Human Enterprise; Harold C. Urey, The Moon and its Origin; James R. Arnold, The Chemist's Moon; John A. O'Keefe, After Apollo: Fission Origin of the Moon; Russell E. Train, Energy and Environmental Problems; Andrew M. Greeley, America First Revisited. More. See scan of contents page. Very, very scarce original monthly issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR52
