Buckminster Fuller - Critical path (1982)
Info
R. Buckminster Fuller is regarded as one of the most important figures of the 20th century, renowned for his achievements as an inventor, designer, architect, philosopher, mathematician, and dogged individualist. Perhaps best remembered for the Geodesic Dome and the term "Spaceship Earth," his work and his writings have had a profound impact on modern life and thought.
Critical Path is Fuller's master work--the summing up of a lifetime's thought and concern--as urgent and relevant as it was upon its first publication in 1981. Critical Path details how humanity found itself in its current situation--at the limits of the planet's natural resources and facing political, economic, environmental, and ethical crises.
The crowning achievement of an extraordinary career, Critical Path offers the reader the excitement of understanding the essential dilemmas of our time and how responsible citizens can rise to meet this ultimate challenge to our future.
Jonas Salk - Reactions To Influenza Virus Vaccines (1947)
Abstract
In Dr. Curphey's article in The Journal, April 12, concerning a fatal reaction to influenza virus vaccine he has apparently utilized the occurrence of a fatal case in a 3 1/2 year old child to emphasize the work of Ratner and Untracht (The Journal, Dec. 14, 1946, p. 899) regarding the advisability of determining the existence of egg allergy before using vaccines of egg origin.There are so many features about Dr. Curphey's case that are not compatible with an allergic reaction that one might question, as Dr. Curphey has done, the mechanism he emphasized as probably responsible for the course of events observed. If, as seems possible, the reaction that occurred was not due to egg allergy, the results of a skin test would not have provided information that could have prevented the fatal reaction. Therefore I should like to take the opportunity to call attention.
