Morton Nadler is section head at BULL-GE, Paris, and "an interdisciplinary scientifically-oriented engineer."' A psychology major at City College of New York, he worked his way into electronics engineering, taking his MSEE at Illinois Institute of Technology. Following work on electronic instruments for military research and television, he entered the computer field almost inadvertently in 1955. His research philosophy is based on the observation of a fine-arts acquaintance that the Cyrillic is intrinsically more difficult to read than the Latin alphabet--due to the absence of certain form elements so characteristic of the latter.
