Description
Scope/Content: During the fall of 1957, Niels Bohr visited the U.S. In order to deliver several lectures at M.I.T. Here he is writing to John Wheeler to let him know his plans. Wheeler encouraged Hugh Everett to meet with Bohr while Bohr was in the U.S., but it seems Everett did not follow up on this opportunity.
