Dear Dr. Sharfman:

My files are still far from being in perfect
order following their transfer from Stanford Univer-
sity but I did take a quick look for a couple of items
that might be of interest in connection with our con-
versation concerning the OTA study on Effects of Nu-
clear War. °

The NRC Bulletin refers to just one of a number
of studies of the 1964 earthquake and I believe that
at least one of them had a good bit to say on issues
of social behavior.

I also notice that there is a reasonably new
journal called "Mass Emergencies" and I would suspect
that among its editors and authors you might find some
potential contributors that would be*easy to overlook
otherwise.

Finally, I think it would be to some profit to do
a citation index, especially in the social science ci-
tation index, on Ikle's book, to locate contemporary
workers on similar themes.

If anything else comes to mind, you will hear from
me.

Yours sincerely,

shua Lederberg
