This book is a summary of some thirty conferences that were held with individual company groups, each conference confined to the top executives of the corporation. Their value and interest exceeded all expectations, and led to an insistent demand that the material be made publicly available. The authors hope that this publication will stimulate further discussions of matters pertaining to resources, important as they are to the future of our nation and the world. They also trust that this publication will serve as evidence that members of university and industrial staffs can profitably cooperate in examining many types of problems of importance to human welfare. Among the topics addressed are: Raw Materials, Food Production, Agricultural Change, Forecasting, Technical Manpower, Industrialization, Energy Resources, and Technical Training. More
