    Abstract:
    Smith reports on the annual congress of the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War (IPPNW), held June 1987 in Moscow. The IPPNW declared its support for the total abolition of nuclear weapons, a theme addressed by many of the speakers to the assembly of delegates. While much attention was directed toward relations between the superpowers, the impact of the arms race on expenditures for health in developing countries was also emphasized. The congress closed with discussions of ways to encourage peaceful international cooperation and the use of satellite communication technology to promote world health.
