This is an edited record of the dialogue of eminent scientists
attending the fourth conference in the series of the origins of
life, supported by a grant from the Biosciences Program of the
National Aeronautics and Space Admini stration. The first
conference at Princeton, 1967, was held under the direc tion of Dr.
Frank Fremont-Smith at the time when the Interdisciplinary Co m
munications Program (lCP) was associated with the New York Academy
of Sciences. In 1968, ICP was integrated into the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Science of the Smithsonian Institution, and
the entire operation was set up in Washington, D. C. The second
conference, also in Princeton, was held in 1968 and the third was
in Santa Ynez, California in 1970. (See Margulis, ed. 1970, 1971
and 1972 for previously published proceedings.) The fourth
conference was held at the Belmont Conference Center in Elkridge,
Maryland, April 13-16, 1971. The proceedings are recorded and
edited by the Interdisciplinary Com munications Associates, Inc.
(lCA, a nonprofit foundation), for ICP. Dr. Lynn Margulis, who
served as Scientific Editor for the entire series, has succeeded
admirably in carrying out a difficult and usually inadequately
appreciated task. She was ably assisted in her offices by Barbara
Miranda and Harriet Eklund, the ICP Staff Editor for this series. I
am grateful to all."
