Missing reviews

The book reviews are mentioned in letters, as attached, but not included, at least next to the letter, in the DFH archives.

How about a bibliometric study of sources of diagrams and quotes, as gleaned from the permissions?

Research notes

Archives

Box 5, of 8 in Cornell's archives of Don Holcomb's papers, contains a folder titled My Father's Watch, correspondence Aug 1968-July 1970. I went through the entire folder of about 250 pages for all the entries in this wiki dated June 23, 2011, taking notes in the wiki and also taking photos of interesting documents.

In the same box, there is a cyan notebook called "Aspects" with "D.F. Holcomb, Physics Laboratory, University of Kent, 1968-1969 (on to 1973)" written on the cover. As of 2011-06-23, I have taken photos of a few pages near the beginning, but there may be more of interest, e.g. pertaining to selection of energy topics and relevant Sci Am articles. As of 2011-06-23 I haven't looked at the second folder, titled "My Father's Watch, correspondence June 1970-."
