Major Events

  • Pauling publishes a resonating-valence-bond theory of superconductivity in PNAS.
  • He publishes in Science a widely discussed and frequently cited article on orthomolecular psychiatry, his theory that mental health is deeply correlated with an optimum molecular environment for the mind. Consequently, mental disease is best treated by striving to achieve optimum concentrations of substances normally present in the human body.
  • In April, he gives the First Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Lecture, "Scientific Discovery: Its Impact upon Man."
  • On May 6 and 7, Pauling participates in the symposium and dedication of the Arthur Amos Noyes Laboratory of Chemical Physics at CIT.
  • In June, two years late, the festschrift in honor of Pauling’s 65th birthday is published by Freeman. Structural Chemistry and Molecular Biology, which is edited by Alexander Rich and Norman Davidson, is a massive work (907 pages), with 60 original papers by 86 of Pauling’s associates and students. Also included is a reprint of his classic 1931 paper on the chemical bond.
  • On August 9, Pauling is reappointed Professor of Chemistry in Residence at the University of California, San Diego. His research is also supported by the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions.
