NY Times
Seymour Melman, a Columbia University scholar who helped galvanize the antiwar movement from the 1950’s on with analyses of the social costs of military spending, died on Dec. 16 at his home in Manhattan. He was 86.
The cause appeared to be an aneurysm, said Benjamin Abrams, his research assistant.
