Scope and content

Not thinking of scientific organisation in connection with war but of general features of organisation of American scientific research. Have in mind book that would give account of great institutions of scientific research, recent work in chief branches of science, attitude of government and private persons, relations of science to industry, to give English public idea of scope and character of organised scientific research in USA. Leaves it to author to plan book with this object in view. Hopes D will write something for series. Prefer one book on American science, but if D prefer to limit scope to physical sciences then B try to get another author for biological science.
