One example of extended practical ap-

teaching each as brand-new step, wrapping
it up and putting it aside.
All these approaches are directed at what
the new curriculum book describes as the
primary purpose of teaching math in the ele-
mentary school-"to develop the ability Of
children to use our number system with under
standing, so that they may solve the quanti-
tative problems of today's world"
Facts" it is noted, 'are no more mathe-

mathematical problems be of the home, or of

Radiation. Genes and Man."
by Bruce Wallace and TIL. Do
bzhanskY. (Holt. EOS PIP. $4.75)
The fact that radiation can
cause genetic mutations has been
known since H. J. Muller's great
discovery in 1926. Muller lost no
time in calling attention to the
potential human dangers thereby
implied, but it took Hiroshima,
Nagasaki and Bikini to awaken a
wide interest.
Now we have an abundance Of
discussion and of authoritative
reports - those of the National
Academy of Sciences, the British
Medical Research Council, the
Holifield Congressional Subcom-
mittee, the World Health Organ
ization, and the United Nations.
Collectively these reports carry a
vast store of information and
they all agree that radiation con-
stitutes real risk to future gen.
erations. though one whose mag
nitude cannot now be measured
with any precision.
Geneticists have been called
pessimists for worrying about
hereditary defects many genera
tons hence. I suggest the oppo-
site. They are optimistic enough
to assume that man has a future
long enough to worry about, an
assumption which in view of
mans unique capacity for self
destruction may seem entirely
gratuitous.
Two well-kpown geneticists,
DR.. Bruce Wallace of Cornell, and
his former professor, TIL. Dobz-
hansky of Columbia, have writ
ten a nontechnical book dealing
exclusively with the genetic eff
fects of radiation and the human
problems raised by an increasing
use of radiation and nuclear en-
ergy. "The purpose of the book"
they say, sis to spell out, to the
/ best of our ability, the genetic
aspects Of the problem of atomic
and other-radiations."
For the most part, they have
succeeded very well, though there
are several places where the pro-
fessional geneticist may find him
self in disagreement. They de-
scribe the basic physical facts OF
radiation, the nature and work
ings Of genes and chromosomes
the rules of spontaneous and ra-
|diation-induced mutation, and the
impact of mutant genes on pres
ent and future populations. They
point out that there is no com
pletelY safe" dose Of radiation
that any amount that reaches the
