These proceedings cover the lectures delivered at the Fourth
International Summer College on Physics and Contemporary Needs held
from June 16 - July 4, 1979 at Nathiagali, one of the scenic hill
resorts in the northern part of Pakistan. The college was organised
by Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) and co-sponsored by the
International Centre for Theoretical Physics, Trieste (ICTP),
Italy. It also received a financial grant from the University
Grants Commi ssion for the participation of physicists from various
universities of Pakistan. The college was attended by 16 lecturers
and invited seminar speakers. It was attended by 186 participants
from 28 coun tries and consisted of 15 concentrated days of
lectures, seminars and informal discussions. These proceedings
contain only regular lectures delivered at Nathiagali but the
seminars held there are listed in the Appendix. This year the
college put special emphasis on various energy systems, including
their long term implications, and computer software. However, the
lectures delivered at the college also covered a wide spectrum of
physics. The series of the colleges of which the present college is
the fourth one are an attempt to remove the barrier of isolation
for the physicists working in developing coun tries, far removed
from active centres of research. Thus these colleges could help to
fill the important gap in communication between the physicists of
developing and advanced countries."
