<br />f9r new nuclea.r genera�ting facili6es by electric utilities in the US �
<br />4� D V�/ �g�,, and around the world that clearly signals acceptance of the maturity �;,
<br />of nuclear .power as a compedtive factor in the fuel econoany of ���
<br />the world. TIus change is part of a certain: polarization in the field '''
<br />of nuclear scienoe and engineering tha�t l:as taken place� as nuclear i�
<br />science moved out of the development �tage and began to apply its � i
<br />technqlogy to such commercial and industrial functions as power };�
<br />generation, water purificaUon, marine Frapulsian, food preservation, ';
<br />�nd the like. ; �
<br />As each applicatian beca�me �qr� important �n its own right and� �
<br />. was associated with the specialized technologies and particular . �
<br />econamic conditions, it grew apparenf that realignment in coverage �'
<br />of the nuclear field amon� McGraw-Hill magazines �vas necessary !�

<br />to properly serve each industry's need for knowledge. Thus it is
