Professor Kasimir Fajans
Department of Chemistry
University of Michigan
Ann Arbor, Michigan
Dear Professor Fajans:
I was interested to read year letter of December 28, and the galley proofs of your book reviews which I return herewith.
You are right in surmising that there has been no change in my conception of the structure of the aside ion, and that the brief reference to it in my address on modern structural chemistry was not supposed to be a complete discussion of its electronic structure.
The only recent work that I have in the process of publication and in which you might be interested is a new discussion of the structure of metals and intermetallic compounds. My first paper on this subject will appear in the January issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
With best wishes for a Happy Hew Year to you and your family, I am
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
