WE GATHER once again, a fifth time in less than five years, for the annual Congress of the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, the IPPNW. We come here determined to ward off the greatest pestilence threatening life. We meet in a city, risen from the rubble of conventional war, once again beautiful and cultivated. We convene in a country that has suffered misery, plunder, starvation, and death with nearly 10% of its people killed in World War II. Our Hungarian colleagues therefore understand the meaning of nuclear war. They have worked with perseverance to make this Congress a memorable event. We commend Academician Susan Hollan for leadership and commitment. We acknowledge with respect and gratitude the tireless efforts of Drs Gyozo Petranyi, Laszlo Sztanyik, Csaba Farsang, Anna Romany, Janos Gergely, Csaba Lang, Balazs Sarkadi, and many other contributors deserving praise. Two Anniversaries We gather under the slogan |
