We still have not given up hope of having your paper. Would it be possible for you to send me a revised target date for the completion of your manuscript? To: TX Sincerely, J. LEDERBERG RC Repl GENETICS DEPARTMENT eply RO + . (3 wl STANFORD UNIVERSITY STANFORD, CALIFORNIA J. . Bunnett JUL 9 1959 Editor After some abortive efforts that fuiled just short of a delivery, I decided that our work was no longer yuite ripe for ACR, having just turned into new, rapidly moving phases (cf. JACS May 21); what I KRNEN have written for ACR has gotten so out of hand that I thought it better for a book which I am polishing up this summer for Freeman, May I take the in@tiative about a year from now to consult you again about writing in ACK when the present wave has run its course? Chis would emphasize the computér- intelligence applications, rather than the backgrceund graph theory that you can see in the enclosed reprint (which has been in press for a couple of years.)
