He foresaw the possibility of a Cold War, a time of tensions and uncertainty with both major powers possessing doomsday weapons. Witness now the precience of the Dean of Science Fiction, who saw it coming in 1941. Follow a chain of events extraordinary, leading to a problem unprecedented, and a Solution Unsatisfactory.
