Description:
"Humanity is threatened to an increasing degree by environmental and technical catastrophes, economic disasters, wars and ethnic conflicts. This book describes what the international community of scientific institutions could do to reverse this trend, by pooling its know-how and resources in international and interdisciplinary working groups and standing committees, by preparing options for action, and by studying the possibilities for overcoming the political and economic obstacles to the implementation of expert advice."--Jacket.
