For thirteen years, since his resignation from the chairmanship of
the Atomic Energy Commission, Mr. Lilienthal has kept silent on the
atom, turning his energies and talents to the field of
international development. Now the first chairman of the AEC speaks
out on the vital question of disarmament, on the role of the atom
in modern life, and on the AEC itself. His views are controversial,
and will not be popular in many quarters. Mr. Lilienthal thinks
that the present disarmament negotiations are premature and
dangerous, that our view of the place of the atom in the modern
world has been mainly wrong, and that the functions of the AEC
should be largely absorbed into other government and private
activities. Originally published in 1963. The Princeton Legacy
Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make
available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished
backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the
original texts of these important books while presenting them in
durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton
Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly
heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton
University Press since its founding in 1905.
