...Many women in foreign countries, seeking to be "modern" like the emancipated American woman, turned from breast feeding to formula. But because of lack of careful sterilization methods, the infant mortality rate rose. Could not the Peace Corps be effective in re-educating these women? How many dollars would be saved in our foreign aid food programs if thousands of these women would return to their older, superior method...

...production and "the practical impossibility of preventing a massive rocket attack" that U.S. analysts are certain that he has engaged in military research. Present foreign policy in both Washington and the Kremlin, he says, is aimed "at maximum improvement of one's position everywhere possible and, simultaneously, a method of causing maximum unpleasantness to opposing forces without consideration of common welfare and common interests." In recent years, says Sakharov, such policies have engendered two wars: Viet Nam and the Arab-Israeli conflict...

...ground called fumaroles (from the Latin word fumariolum; meaning smokehole), and the simplest way to prospect for this geothermal energy is to look for such vaporous leaks in the earth's crust. But in areas where the energy remains trapped underground, geologists must use more sophisticated techniques. One method employs infra-red aerial photography. Since the infra-red film is sensitive to heat, geothermal areas are likely to show up lighter in the picture. Another method measures the earth's electrical conductivity, which increases with the presence of subsurface hot water. To tap the subterranean energy, engineers drill...
