Prepared by the Committee of Inquiry on the Nuclear Issue.
Nuclear weapons must be understood to be controlled, and that understanding must extend beyond the limited number of experts to a broadly informed public....The Committee of Inquiry has shown us what committed men and women can do. -- Charles McC. Mathias, Jr., Retired U.S. Senator
This is the best summary I have read of the greatest moral and political questions of the age. It faces the dilemma between fear and hope and adds a spiritual dimension to Albert Einstein's admonition: 'We must never relax our efforts to arouse in thepeople of the world, and especially their governments, an awareness of the unprecedented disaster which they are absolutely certain to bring on themselves unless there is a fundamental change in their attitudes toward one another as well as in their concept of the future. The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking and thus we drift toward unparalleled catastrophe.'> -- James R. Reston, New York Times
