Dr. George B. Kistiakowsky of Harvard University, science adviser to President Eisenhower, was among the contributors to the report. Jay Iselin, editor in chief of Harper & Row, said that the book would be issued early next month, when Congress was expected to debate the Administration's request to fi- nance the antiballistic system. He said his company would publish a hardcover edition priced at $6.95 and New Amer ican Library would appear simultaneously with a paperback edition priced at about .$1. "We are convinced," he said, "that Senator Kennedy's introduction will give the study a lot more reader appeal." y 000202 � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
