Scope and content
Understands that it has been the practice to publish the Brampton Lectures without any contract between the Columbia Press and the author. Is not satisfied with this situation; it was not mentioned at the time he was invited to speak, nor at the time of the lectures themselves. Is prepared to forfeit the $1,000 still owing for the lectures if an acceptable contract is not signed by the end of the month. Lectures eventually published as Man in the universe (New York: Columbia University Press, 1966). See also 19/11/2, 12/4/10, 22/12 and 38/2/1. Autograph manuscript
