21. Albert Einstein | Biography | Atomicarchive.com
    As his last public act, and just days before his death, he signed the RussellEinstein Manifesto, which led to the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs.  
    http://www.atomicarchive.com/Bios/Einstein.shtml
    
    Extractions: Search: Albert Einstein was born at Ulm in Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879, into a non-observant Jewish family. At age five, his father showed him a pocket compass, and Einstein realized that something in "empty" space acted upon the needle; he would later describe the experience as one of the most revelatory of his life. Although considered a slow learner, possibly due to dyslexia, simply shyness or the significantly rare and unusual structure his brain (examined after his death), Einstein built models and mechanical devices for fun. Another, more recent, theory about his mental development is that he had Asperger's syndrome, a condition related to autism. Einstein began to learn mathematics around age 12. In 1894, his family moved from Munich to Pavia, Italy (near Milan), and this same year Einstein wrote his first scientific work, The Investigation of the State of Aether in Magnetic Fields. ) He continued his education at Aarau, Switzerland, and in 1896, he entered the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich to be trained as a teacher in physics and mathematics. In 1901, he gained his diploma and acquired Swiss citizenship. Unable to find a teaching post, he accepted a position as technical assistant in the Swiss Patent Office, obtaining his doctor's degree in 1905.

Die Ortschaft liegt an der Mündung des Pugwash River in die Northumberland Strait . Der Name Pugwash stammt vom Mi'kmaq -Wort Paqweak , was „flaches Wasser“ bedeutet, in Anlehnung an den nahen Fluss. Da die Ortschaft auf einem 450 Meter dicken Salzdepot liegt, ist sie die Heimat der größten Salzmine in den Atlantischen Provinzen Kanadas Wirtschaft Literatur ... Die ersten europäischen Siedler waren Farmer aus den Neuengland -Staaten. Während der Amerikanischen Revolution kamen die Loyalisten als neue Siedler hinzu, die durch Landgarantien angelockt wurden. Auch Briten, Schotten und Iren suchten ein besseres Leben in Nova Scotia. Der Schiffbau und die europäische Nachfrage nach Holz brachten Wachstum nach Pugwash. Nach dem Niedergang der Segelschifffahrt erfuhr die Ortschaft einen wirtschaftlichen Niedergang. Der Anschluss von Pugwash an die Eisenbahn im Jahr 1890 brachte auch nicht den erhofften Auftrieb.

24. Joseph Rotblat
    The first of many Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs was held in July 1957. It was organised by Joseph Rotblat, who was the secretarygeneral of the Pugwash  
    http://www.ppu.org.uk/learn/infodocs/people/pp-rotblat1.html
    
    Extractions: Joseph Rotblat first met the mathematician and philosopher Bertrand Russell in 1954, when they both appeared on one of the earliest BBC 'Panorama' programmes. It was about the hydrogen bomb. Bertrand Russell was very disturbed by the information Joseph Rotblat gave him, and at Christmas gave a radio broadcast called 'Man's Peril', about the consequences of nuclear war. Convinced that since scientists had created the nuclear bomb, it was scientists who should try to prevent nuclear warfare, Russell got in touch with Albert Einstein, and asked for - and got - his support. Russell drafted the 'Statement on Nuclear Weapons'; and it was signed by Einstein only days before his death. It was also signed by ten other scientists, one of whom was Joseph Rotblat. The Statement was published in July 1955, and became known as the Russell-Einstein manifesto It was more than a commitment to abolish nuclear weapons. It recognised the 'titanic struggle between communism and anti-communism', and the risks of war that it carried. It recognised the tremendous destructive power of the H-bomb. It recognised the appalling and lasting effects of large amounts of radiation. It recognised that an arms race had already begun. The manifesto put the question: 'Shall we put an end to the human race, or shall mankind renounce war?' and called on the world's scientists to 'assemble in conference to appraise the perils that have arisen as a result of the development of weapons of mass destruction'.

35. Fighting For Peace
    INTRODUCTION by Joseph Rotblat, Nobel Peace Laureate, 1995, Emeritus President, Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs FIGHTING FOR PEACE  
    http://www.ikedabooks.org/fight4peace.html
    
    Extractions: In the earlier half of the 20 th century, Austrian-born writer Stefan Zweig is said to have urged organizing for peace as the most effective measure against the organizations of war. In a parallel vein on a different continent, Daisaku Ikeda culled from the tragedy of war a lifelong commitment to building the resources for peace. Fighting for Peace is a collection of poetry that gives impassioned voice to this commitment shared by people around the world. More than a recitation of epic failures at winning peace and justice for all, the poems speak to citizen and statesman alike of undying hope for change. And more than a flowery appeal for better times, the poems speak plainly of the full range of human potential:
