Scope and content
Towards the nuclear holocaust had to be reduced in length to make in an appropriate size for a cheaper binding, and 'further reading' is therefore necessary. Because of the 'close relationship between 'atoms for peace' and 'atoms for war' [ ] the Official Secrets Act is applied fairly liberally'. Makes several points regarding the difficulties in comparing coal-fired and nuclear power generation. Asks if Matthews saw 'the horrific documentary on Anglia last night?' Enclosed with 23/2/66
