Abstract

Since The Journal's inception in 1924, almost every issue has contained at least one article relating to the history of chemistry. But JCE should not be overlooked as a source for social and political history. At no time did the Journal better serve as a mirror of society than during the World War II era. This month's look at the past focusses on volume 19 (1942), which illustrates the response of the entire nation, especially colleges and universities, to the attack on Pearl Harbor.
