  • Low Level Radiation Health Effects: Compiling the Data, published by Radiation, Science, and Health, Inc., P. O. Box 843, Need-ham, MA 02194 is an excellent review by numerous scientists of experimental research invalidating the no-threshold linear hypothesis. Even Japanese atomic bomb survivors show radiation hormesis.

  • Policy Controversy in Biotechnology: An Insider's View by Henry I. Miller, published by Academic Press (1997). This is a detailed, well-informed and documented account of the negative impact of government on the advance of science and technology.

  • "A '60s Radical Mugged by Reality'' by Joel Kotkin in The Wall Street Journal, March 24, 1997, p A18, about the travails of Tom Hayden, who began his political career disrupting the Chicago Democratic National Convention and is ending it at the hands of Los Angeles voters uninterested in no-growth pseudoenvironmentalism. Hayden is quoted as saying, "I guess this means that the '60s are really over.''

  • Skunk Works by Ben R. Rich & Leo Janos, published by Little, Brown and Company (1994), the remarkable true story of engineers who preserved American air superiority regardless of foolish and inhibitory bumbling by their governmental customers.

  • Executive Orders by Tom Clancy, published by G. P. Putnam's Sons (1996), in which Clancy's conservative recommendations for improvements in the U. S. government pace the action - and the only person mentioned under his real name is Jeff Cooper (an officer trained in Cooper's methods saves the life of the President's daughter). Or, if you prefer non-fiction, try Marine Sniper by Charles Henderson, published by Berkley Books (1986) about the life of U. S. Marine Sergeant Carlos Hathcock. Hathcock was recently featured on the front page of The Wall Street Journal because his killing of an enemy soldier at a range of 2,500 yards in Vietnam has inspired a new sport. Then for a reality check, read We Were Soldiers Once and Young by H. G. Moore and J. L. Galloway, published by Random House (1992) about the bravery and deaths of American soldiers forced by their government to fight in Vietnam with no-win constraints.
