Manifesto for the Atomic Age

From Wikisource
Manifesto for the Atomic Age (1946)
by Virgil Jordan

This work was first published in Volume 7, Number 4 of American Affairs (known as The Conference Board Economic Record or The Economic Record before 1945), under the title "Frame of the Future for America" (pp 191–200). Part 4 contains a translated excerpt of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola's Oration on the Dignity of Man. No copy of this translation can be found elsewhere, except for in a contemporary review in the Lawyer Service Letter which suggests that Jordan made it himself.
