Dear Fan:
I have to admit that I have been negligent about answering your communications. I have found so many problems awaiting solution hare, on my return from Belgium, that I have had a hard time to keep my head above water. In particular, I have not known what decision to make in answer to your questions.
I have decided now that, if there is still time before you submit the manuscript to the publisher, I shall prepare a chapter. I agreed originally to write a section about seven printed pages long on preventive medicine from the standpoint of the fundamental scientists rather than the medical practitioner. Your invitation suggested that I write a section of ten or twelve pages. I plan now to prepare a section somewhere between these limits, if it is satisfactory to you.
It is my plan to get this job finished by 25 June. I am, in any case, leaving for Europe on 30 June, and shall either have to finish the job or not to do it, by that time.
Please let me know if your schedule is such that a manuscript from me submitted at that time would be acceptable.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:W
