Yes, this is taking a slice out of the Public Television playbook...
Special Offer: FAS has republished “One World or None”; original essays by Albert Einstein, Robert Oppenheimer, Hans Bethe, Leo Szilard et alOne World or None was, and still is, an astonishing little book. We believe that in the history of science, there has never been a collection of invited original essays by a more august group. This book also marked the beginning of an unprecedented period in which scientists spoke with a special moral voice, and were listened to. Most people were certain that the new power of the atom would transform the world, they were just not sure how. The Federation’s response was its first formal publication, One World or None, released in 1946. (Introduction by Dr. Ivan Oelrich, Vice President for Strategic Security, Federation of American Scientists).What is the offer? FAS is making copies of One World or None; the Pulitzer Prize winning, The Making of the Atomic Bomb, and Richard Rhodes latest, Arsenals of Folly available to members of FAS.
