It details the extent to which mid-twentieth-century researchers and practitioners were able to communicate with their counterparts on the opposite side of the Iron Curtain. Drawing upon evidence from a range of disciplines, a decade-by-decade account is first given of the varying levels of contact that existed via private correspondence and conference attendance. Next, the book examines the exchange of publications and the availability of one side's work in the libraries of the other. It then goes on to compare general language abilities on opposite sides of the Iron Curtain, with comments on efforts in the West to learn Russian and the systematic translation of Russian work. In the end, author Christopher Hollings argues that physical accessibility was generally good in both directions, but that Western scientists were afflicted by greater linguistic difficulties than their Soviet counterparts whose major problems were bureaucratic in nature. This volume will be of interest to historians of Cold War science, particularly those who study communications and language issues. In addition, it will be an ideal starting pointing for anyone looking to know more about this fascinating area. 001461123 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed December 16, 2015). 001461123 647_7 $$aCold War$$d(1945-1989)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01754978 001461123 650_0 $$aCommunication in science$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001461123 650_0 $$aScientists$$xCorrespondence. 001461123 650_0 $$aCold War. 001461123 650_6 $$aInformation scientifique$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001461123 650_6 $$aGuerre froide. 001461123 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001461123 655_7 $$aPersonal correspondence.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919948 001461123 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461123 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHollings, Christopher, 1982-$$tScientific communication across the Iron Curtain.$$dCham : Springer, [2016]$$z3319253441$$z9783319253442$$w(OCoLC)920446930 001461123 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in history of science and technology. 001461123 852__ $$bebk 001461123 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-25346-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461123 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461123$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461123 980__ $$aBIB 001461123 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461123 982__ $$aEbook 001461123 983__ $$aOnline 001461123 994__ $$a92$$bISE
