Rawson, editor for Thomas Y. Crowell Company book publishers, asks Nirenberg to consider the possibility of writing a book describing advances in genetics and assessing their probable social consequences. He mentions Nirenberg's Science editorial "Will Society Be Prepared?" as an example of demonstrating the need for "greater understanding of recent advances."
