A handsome example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone.

This meeting was hopeful, since it was reported that under Secretary Hazel O'Leary's leadership the Department of Energy position had moved from opposing the Comprehensive Test Ban to supporting it. During the workshop it was noted that it was important to broaden the nonproliferation discussion because the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty did not, by itself, insure that nuclear weapons would not be build by additional countries. A principal issue raised was whether the negotiations could be accelerated so as to have in place, by the beginning of the NPT Review Conference, an agreement in principle on a CTB, if not final treaty language.
