Cohen papers Finding aid prepared by Hoover Institution Library and Archives Staff Hoover Institution Library and Archives © 2019 434 Galvez Mall Stanford University Stanford, CA 94305-6003 [email protected] URL: http://www.hoover.org/library-and-archives Preliminary Inventory of the S. T. 2019C62 1 Cohen papers Title: S. T. Cohen papers Date (inclusive): ca. 1920s-2010 Collection Number: 2019C62 Contributing Institution: Hoover Institution Library and Archives Language of Material: English Physical Description: 9 manuscript boxes, 1 oversize box, media(5.5 Linear Feet) Abstract: Samuel Theodore Cohen (1921-2010) was an American physicist best known as the father of the neutron bomb. He is credited with development of the neutron bomb concept, based on nuclear fusion rather than fission, as a Rand Corporation analyst in 1958. Subsequently he was a staunch advocate of development and deployment of neutron bombs as a part of the American nuclear ansenal. While others viewed this prospect with horror, Cohen maintained that neutron bombs were actually more humane than alternative nuclear weapons. He suggested the utility of tactical low-yield nuclear explosions to create defensive radiation barriers. In later years he warned that "red mercury" could be used to produce a miniature fusion nuclear bomb. The largest and most important series in the S. T. Cohen Papers is that of Cohen's Speeches and Writings. They include the voluminous transcripts of a series of interviews of Cohen conducted by Bill Froug over the course of a month in 1978. These provide Cohen's candid accounts of his life and of his first-hand observations of associates and events in the development of the American nuclear program. Other candid accounts are to be found in his memoir Shame: Confessions of a Nuclear Pariah, self-published in 2000. An unexpected element of Cohen's writings is a fictional component. In his fictional compositions, unpublished and sometimes quite lengthy, he explored thoughts of nuclear warfare and on his own life. Interviews, memoirs and fictional writings all reflect a strong interest in psychoanalysis. There are smaller Biographical File, Correspondence and Subject File series. An Audiovisual File consists principally of audio recordings. These do not appear to include any of the Froug interview recordings.

Common sense warning: The book you are about to read is dangerous. If you are from the English language media sphere, virtually everything you may think you know about contemporary Rus- sia; its political system, leaders, economy, population, so-called opposition, foreign policy and much more is either seriously flawed or just plain wrong. This has not happened by accident. This book explains why. This book is also about gross double standards, hypocrisy, and venal stupidity with western media playing the role of willing accomplice. After reading this interesting tome, you might reconsider everything you “learn” from mainstream media about Russia and the world.

If anything is discovered that is considered by your agency to be classified, notify the publisher. Page 1 Why is this book important? We may be able to consider this book to be DISCLOSURE! While it is not direct disclosure from a government official, it is indirect disclosure based on the actions of the government. The government claims that UFOs and aliens do not exist, but if you have taken a photo of one, after they brand you as a kook, there’s a good chance that the Men in Black will show up at your door demanding your evidence. ≈ ≈ ≈ Their own actions prove unequivocally that UFOs and aliens are real, here’s why: 1. If they don’t exist why does the gov’t work so hard to prove that they don’t exist? 2. According to government documents: They consider that “Any encounter with entities known to be of extraterrestrial origin is to be considered to be a matter of national security and therefore classified TOP SECRET.” 3. Government documents claim that “Under no circumstances is the general public or the public press to learn of the existence of these entities. The official government policy is that such creatures do not exist, and that no agency of the federal government is now engaged in any study of extraterrestrials or their artifacts.
