Scope and content

Has just read Ryle's pamphlet Towards the nuclear holocaust and finds it disconcerting that it differs so greatly from the views expressed by FH in Commonsense in nuclear energy. Asks how 'laymen' are to 'discriminate between the views of two such eminent scientists […] when such views appear to be diametrically opposed'. Enclosed with 23/2/66
