Abstract
- The article presents the author's perspective on the evolution of a venture in Antarctic science. He states that Antarctica, at last, had become an international laboratory, a far cry from the days when plans and movements were discussed in code or cypher lest someone else should forestall the next move. He describes the development of the British Antarctic Survey from a paramilitary operation in World War II and its present work. He hopes that scientists are allowed to continue their studies uninterrupted by outside influences from an over-populated world. INSET: THE CROSSING OF ANTARCTICA.
