...first half of Disturbing the Universe is largely his scientific autobiography, the second is his somewhat disjointed account of what must have been a disjointed later career. Why should a man of such acknowledged brilliance lead his professional life thus--first working with atomic energy, then space missions; now testifying before the Supreme Court, now tutoring the Princeton prodigy who independently discovered the atomic bomb? Because, it seems, he gave up on himself as a pure theoretical physicist. "I was," writes Dyson, "and always have remained, a problem solver rather than a creator of ideas. I can not, as Bohr...

This league can only be Christian if Christ said, "Shoot those who hate you and tip over the desks of those who spitefully use you."

Because not every refinery can process all grades of crude, oilmen face logistical headaches in trying to switch about their Iranian and non-Iranian supplies. That is especially true for the four American companies providing nearly all of the 700,000 or so barrels of Iranian oil that until last week had entered the U.S. each day. Amerada Hess, the largest single supplier, delivered about 200,000 bbl. of the total. Much of it was processed...
