Excerpt from X-Ray Measurements and Protection, 1913-1964: The Role of the National Bureau of Standards and the National Radiological Organizations

This book is an account of how Government and non-government organizations have worked together. It is a fairly good example of the patterns that apply to problem areas other than ionizing radiation, except that today there seems to be less mutual trust between the two; and, by the public, less trust in either. Attention will be directed to some of the changes and differences between Government laboratory operations under which the current generation chafes and those under which my generation thought they were chafing. Indeed the present generation of laboratory workers will note an almost unbelievable contrast between the research operations during the simple life of a half century ago and the more complicated ways of today.
