The Words of the Henkin Family |
The International Conference on the Unity of the Sciences (ICUS) will hold its annual meeting November 28 -- December 1 in Houston, but in the meantime ICUS is focusing its energies on getting scholarly publications printed for distribution to leading libraries and universities throughout the world.
"There are currently 18 ICUS books now in preparation," says Stephen Henkin, the director of ICUS publications. "As a result the science conference will have a year-round impact on the field of scientific thought."
Dr. Claude A. Villee Jr., of Harvard University Medical School, is now serving as editorial advisor to ICUS books. The production of the volumes will be done by Paragon House Publishers.
Some of the books now in preparation are: Art and Technology, edited by Rene Berger and Lloyd Eby; The Metropolis in Transition, a profusely illustrated book edited by Ervin Y. Galantay; and Evolution as a Transdisciplinary Paradigm, edited by Diane McGuinness.
ICUS books are divided into two series: Unity of Knowledge and Science and Values, the two enduring themes of ICUS.
