Tables. References. Page iii/iv has become separated and has been reglued back in place. Front board weak at that location. Ex-library with the usual library markings. AEC Symposium Series No. 24. Among the sessions held were: The Hazard--Properties of Fallout Fallout-Radiation Effects on Livestock; Fallout-Radiation Effects on Plants. Effects of Fallout Radiation on Agricultural and Natural Communities and Considerations in Agricultural Defense Planning. In Appendix A there are reports on 7 Committee Working Groups. Appendix B addressed Radiation Effects on Farm Animals and Crops. There is a list of Attendees and both Author and Subject indexes. The Preface states: Results of ongoing research and study reported in these symposium proceedings should significantly improve the ability to forecast and assess the postattack availability and safety of food should a nuclear attack on this country occur. This improvement could not have occured of course without an accompanying expansion in knowledge of the basic scientific phenomena involved. The consensus of the symposium was that after such an attack crippling problems of food health ecology and long-term effects on man were unlikely. Excerpt from Survival of Food Crops and Livestock in the Event of Nuclear War: Proceedings of a Symposium Held at Brookhaven National Laboratory Upton Long Island New York Sept. 15-18 1970. Since its inception the Brookhaven National Laboratory has had a deep and active interest in the effects of radiation including radiation from fallout. As examples of this interest we can list the East River Project carried out in large part by the laboratory many years ago; the initial and continuing care of the Marshallese who were accidentally exposed to large doses of fallout radiation in 1954; and the extensive studies at Brookhaven on the effects of radiation on animals and plants. The particular interest at this symposium is radiation effects resulting from high-dose exposure rather than the effects of low-level exposure doses and dose rates commensurate with the radiation - exposure guides for radiation workers and for the public. These studies of course have a strong pragmatic component in that the objective is to develop the ability to predict the potential effects of large doses of radiation on man directly and indirectly via possible detrimental effects on animals and food crops and via isotopes in the food chain. We must be able to evaluate the relative importance of these and other factors in the overall damage situation following nuclear warfare. U. S.

Please see Photos as part of condition report. 1965 1st Edition Thus 2nd PrintingTwo Volumes MYSTERIUM MAGNUM An Exposition of the First Book of Moses called Genesis: Written Anno 1623 By Jaocb Boehme: Vols I and II By Boehme Jacob; Sparrow John Trans. Author Bio: Jakob Böhme German: bøm; 24 April 1575 17 November 1624 was a German philosopher Christian mystic and Lutheran Protestant theologian. He was considered an original thinker by many of his contemporaries within the Lutheran tradition and his first book commonly known as Aurora caused a great scandal. In contemporary English his name may be spelled Jacob Boehme retaining the older German spelling; in seventeenth-century England it was also spelled Behmen approximating the contemporary English pronunciation of the German Böhme. Böhme had a profound influence on later philosophical movements such as German idealism and German Romanticism. Hegel described Böhme as "the first German philosopher". Synopsis: THIS book of the Mysterium Magnum being an exposition of Genesis if it be read through and weighed with good attention will remove those mists from their eyes that have not diligently perused the other writings of the author Jacob Behm which hath occasioned their being offended by the stumbling blocks that have lain in their way from the misreports and relations of others who have but superficially looked upon them and taken up surmisings at the second or third hand and so come to be bereaved of the greatest benefit to their understandings which they would infallibly gain if they would follow the advice in the last paragraph of the last chapter of this book where the author says: We admonish the reader that when he finds somewhat in any place of our deep sense to be obscure that he do not condemn it according to the manner of the evil world; but diligently read and pray to God who will surely open the door of his heart so that he will apprehend it and be able to make use of it to the profit and salvation of his soul.
