Dear Dewey:
I have just received a letter from Lloyd Motz—he is the author of a textbook on astronomy and a professor here at Columbia. A copy is enclosed. He seems to be of two minds about the book; I would ascribe the negative remarks at the end of his letter to a lack of familiarity with Vol. I. I can understand that he found some of Volume III a bit puzzling, if that was the first book of yours that he read. I'll see if he’s ready to tackle Nothing but Motion next.
Still no word from John Gribbin; I waited a bit before writing to him, to see if he would react to my earlier letter and to the book that I had sent to the editor of Nature, asking that Gribbin be notified when it arrives. I did send to Gribbin the copy of your letter to me, together with your article on the Big Bang.
My best,
