Excerpt from The Wing of Madness: the life and work of R.D. Laing by Daniel Burston (Harvard University Press, 1996).
Harry Stack Sullivan founded the Willian Alanson White Memorial Lectures.
William Alanson White was a neurologist and psychiatrist.
In "Later Life and Advocacy" in The Canadian Encyclopedia, it says...
Chisholm became involved in many peace organizations and wrote for pacifist magazines. Atomic destruction and germ warfare particularly concerned him, and he opposed the idea of Canada acquiring nuclear arms. In 1957, he took part in a meeting of international scientists in Pugwash, Nova Scotia, to discuss the dangers of nuclear arms. This was the first in a series of conferences that would eventually win the Nobel Peace Prize in 1995 (see: Pugwash Wins Nobel Prize; Nobel Prizes and Canada). In 1961, Chisholm helped found the Canadian Peace Research Institute. To prevent nuclear war, he advocated for a global government, a global police force and a global legal system.
Turning to the tale of the Pugwash Nobel Peace prize, there's mention of Cyrus Eaton. Now, 55 years after driving up & down Euclid Avenue (to & from work at the Bobbie Brooks factory) and seeing a marquee that read "They thought Cyrus Eaton was a bull shipper" and having no idea then or until now who he was, I can now die with at least that bit of curtiosity saited.
Brock was influenced by Herbert Marcuse
