I am an Italian physicist who, back in 1967, decided to follow the footsteps of Enrico Fermi, and left Italy to place his best energies and capabilities at the service of America.
At the time of this decision, I was unaware of the fact that scientific ethics in the U. S. physics community had declined since Fermi's time. Following my arrival here, I have observed and experienced a further deterioration of scientific ethics. A series of more recent episodes has created my conviction that it is time for the U. S. society to confront and contain the problem of scientific ethics in physics. In fact, the lack of vigilance on ethical issues may well constitute a threat to 'our free societies.
In this book, I present my case to the best of my recollection and documentation. In Chapter 1, I present the background scientific issues in a way as understandable to the general audience as possible. In Chapter 2, I review my personal experiences with primary U. S. Universities, Federal Laboratories, Journals of the American Physical Society, and Governmental Agencies. Finally, in Chapter 3, I pass to the constructive part, the submission of a number of recommendations aimed at containing ethical problems in physics.
