1968. Pauling, a Nobel Prize winner for Chemistry (1954) and a Nobel Peace Prize winner (1962), here declines to offer publicity praise for Sheldon Novick's The Careless Atom, owing to a "presentation by the author of an incorrect and misleading discussion of DNA." He suggests cuts to several specific galley pages. Signed by Pauling. A note in pencil across the bottom indicates that the editor has decided to leave the text as is. Near fine. [#036727] SOLD
