Travels in the new world. Volume III. [Nuclear energy developments, 1961-71]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5174134

This is the third volume of a three-volume series, Travels in the New World, describing the visits of Glenn J. Seaborg to some 60 countries during his tenure as Chairman of the US Atomic Energy Commission during the decade 1961--1971. Although nuclear energy is prominent, the theme is broader than this in its emphasis on international cooperation in science and technology and on efforts to promote the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). This volume describes four visits to the Soviet Union, two reciprocal visits of Soviet colleagues to the United States, and numerous negotiations and other exchange visits between the two countries during this period of time. It is hoped that this will give the reader some insight into relations during this decade. Some narrative material is interspersed in order to help the reader understand the journal entries, some of which are rather brief. (RWR)
