Footnotes for the Atom

by Vincent Edward Smith

FROM THE This book is a series of footnotes to one of the headline subjects of our day, the power of the atom. It is not a full-fledged and formal treatise on the atom or, for that matter, on anything else. It simply finds the atom a peg in time on which to hang a number of timeless truths. . . . . The bomb, which climaxed the war, seemed to also climax the notebook which was writing itself to the conclusion that Science, alone, by its stress on quantity, would only melt more and more the unity and organization vital for peace. TABLE OF 1.) The Method -- 2.) The Atom -- 3.) Being -- 4.) Unity -- 5.) Integrity -- 6.) Tools -- 7.) Power -- 8.) Destiny -- 9.) Equality -- 10.) Cooperation -- 11.) The Future
