Science for the People (Organization)
Science for the People records, 1969-1992.
The collection documents the activities of a group of scientists and students involved in educational and political work critical of the scientific establishment, and controversial scientific topics that were addressed in the 1970s and 1980s. The collection consists of correspondence, newsletters, flyers, articles, clippings, pamphlets, magazines, slides, microfilm, recordings, and photographs. The collection documents specific topics, such as sociobiology, Vietnam, nuclear power, and genetic engineering.
