...would certainly have been imprudent to deploy a force vulnerable to North Korean airpower. But there were risks in any case. Would Premier Kim II Sung look upon the force as a constraint or a challenge? If the North Korean dictator chose the latter view, further conflict could easily develop.

It is now provable that the more advanced a creature is, the more it can learn-and the more REM sleep it has. Humans in infancy, learning more intensely than they ever will again because everything is new to them, spend 50% of their sleep...

Such a man is obviously valu able to any economy, but he is also rare. Is there a way to develop him? In Motivating Economic Achievement, to be published this month by The Free Press of Manhattan, Psychologists McClelland and David G. Winter of Wesleyan University argue that the seeds of entrepreneurship can be planted with almost ridiculous ease...
