Scope and content
Consists of carbon copies of letters sent by Bronowski and Sylvia Fitzgerald (Editorial Associate to Bronowski).
Subjects include: publications by Bronowski, and discussion of ideas in them; a series of seminars on cognitive studies at the Salk Institute which had been organised by Eugene Galanter (Department of Psychology, Columbia University, New York); books to purchase for the Szilard collection at the Salk Institute; the Council for Biology in Human Affairs at the Salk Institute agreeing to co-sponsor a meeting of the British Society for Social Responsibility in Science; research and work on 'The Ascent of Man'; invitations to write articles and attend conferences and seminars; and Bronowski's belief that 'The New York Review of Books' had become anti-technological.
