The Third Pugwash Conference.

The article highlights the third in a series of Pugwash Conferences, dubbed as "The Dangers of the Atomic Age and What Scientists Can Do About Them," held at Kitzbuhel on September 14 to 19, and at Vienna on September 20, 1958 in Austria. These conferences resulted from a spontaneous movement among scientists of different countries, seeking international exchange of ideas on problems arising from the impact of science on human affairs. The continuing committee decided to make in this conference an attempt to expand the Pugwash movement considerably in breadth, by inviting participation of prominent scientists from a greater number of countries, with a greater variety of opinions.
