Robert Oppenheimer, the award consisted of a medal, certificate and a $1000 honorarium. It was awarded for "outstanding contributions to the theoretical natural sciences [...] during the preceding decade".[1] The acceptance speech for the inaugural award to Dirac was published as The Development of Quantum Theory (1971).[2]
