Problems at the end of each chapter may prove useful when the text is used for instruction. References are provided for readers who wish more details about the topics treated in each chapter. Extensive use has been made of information from the Proceedings of the four International Conferences on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy in Geneva, Switzerland, sponsored by the United Nations, which are listed as PICG, followed by the number of the conference, in the references at the ends of chapters.

Whitman s career in the post-war period was highly significant. At M.I.T. he directed the first study, in 1948, of the use of nuclear power for airplanes. On leave from M.I.T., he was on the General Advisory Committee of the Atomic Energy Commission and, successively. Chairman of the Research and Development Board of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Department of Defense, organized under United Nations auspices of the First International Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy, and Science Advisor to the Department of State.

During the last ten years most of the efforts have gone toward exploiting the existence of fast electronic computers. As a result several new methods have been developed, such as the Sn difference methods [3 4] and the Monte Carlo statistical approach. In addition, several of the earlier methods, for example, those mentioned above, have been adapted to the new situation. Many of these more recent investigations are discussed by Richtmyer [5] and others were reported on at the Second International Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy (see for instance Bareiss [6] and Grelbard, et al. [7]).
