Physics Today

The activities of the American Institute of Physics during 1961 are reported here in topical form with numerous headings and subheadings to facilitate the finding of those sections in which the reader has greatest interest. Two matters, however, deserve special mention; both of them having arisen as a result of the recent phenomenally rapid growth of physics. They will be discussed briefly in this introduction as well as in their appropriate places in the body of the report.
