New York, N.Y. Fusion Energy Foundation, 1983. Preprint Presumed first edition, first printing thus. Wraps. [2], 13, [1] pages. Oversized item, measuring 10-1/2 inches by 8-1/4 inches. Some discoloration to front cover. Erasure residue on front cover. Most pages printed in a two column format. This essay is devoted to the subject of the context for defining requirements for medical and related civil defense under both probable conditions of risk of nuclear and other warfare during an interval of perhaps five to seven years ahead, and also a capacity for dealing with catastrophes of other forms for which a similar kind of emergency capability is required. Fusion Energy Foundation (FEF) was an American non-profit think tank co-founded by Lyndon LaRouche in 1974 in New York. It promoted the construction of nuclear power plants, research into fusion power and beam weapons and other causes. The FEF was called fusion's greatest private supporter. It was praised by scientists like John Clarke, who said that the fusion community owed it a "debt of gratitude". By 1980, its main publication, Fusion, claimed 80,000 subscribers. The FEF included notable scientists and others on its boards, along with LaRouche movement insiders in management positions. It published a popular magazine, Fusion, and a more technical journal as well as books and pamphlets. It conducted seminars and its members testified at legislative hearings. It was known for soliciting subscriptions to their magazines in U.S. airports, where its confrontational methods resulted in conflicts with celebrities and the general public. The FEF has been described by many writers[who?] as a "front" for the U.S. Labor Party and the LaRouche movement. By the mid-1980s, the FEF was being accused of fraudulent fundraising on behalf of other LaRouche entities. Federal prosecutors forced it into bankruptcy in 1986 to collect contempt of court fines, a decision that was later overturned when a federal bankruptcy court found that the government had acted "in bad faith".[1] Key personnel were convicted in 1988.

Santa Monica, CA and Los Angeles, CA: Geo Science Analytical, Inc. and University of California at Los Angeles, 1981. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Trade paperback. Various paginations (approximately 1 inch thick). Footnotes. Figures. Tables. References. Ex-Los Alamos National Laboratory library with usual library markings. This collection of W. F. Libby's papers contains those on Talking to People. This includes a two page entry entitled Recollections of a Long and Fruitful Friendship by Edward Teller. The contents of this volume are talks that existed as typed, double-spaced papers in Bill Libby's files, but for the most part were no published in the open literature. A few of the papers are exceedingly technical but are included here because Dr. Libby withheld them from publication; no doubt intending to rethink them if more information should become available. Many of the papers are talks given at every lever, e.g. high schools, colleges, business organizations, journalists, and various groups. All were written between 1960 and 1980. Among the topics covered are: The Role of the Chemist in Atomic Power, The Citizen and the Atom, Nobel Award Acceptance Speech, Radiocarbon Dating, Civil Defense, Tritium Geophysics, Atomic Armaments, Radioactive Fallout, Fallout Shelter, The Atomic Space Ship, Nuclear Energy, Plowshare, Space Science, Gasbuggy Site, Solar Wind, Venus Orbiters, Climate History, and Spent Oil Fields.
