From the Nobel Prize-winning scientist--a memoir that reads like "an unexpected breeze of fresh air."(Publishers Weekly)
Praised by Publishers Weekly as "human, funny" and "emotional," The Double Helix is a lively personal account of one of the most significant scientific achievements of the century. This unique memoir is written from the point of view of the young researcher, only twenty-five at the time, who would go down in history as one of the first to identify our fundamental genetic material, DNA--a discovery that would radically reshape our view of our bodies, our minds, and our world...
The National Bestseller..."A thrilling book from beginning to end."--New York Times
"An enormous success...a classic."--New York Review of Books
Praise for The Double Helix:
"Delightful, often funny, vividly observant, full of suspense and mounting tension."--New York Times
"He has described admirably how it feels to have that frightening and beautiful experience of making a great scientific discovery." --Richard Feynman
"A publishing triumph." --John Fischer
* A Nobel Prize-winning scientist, James Watson (of "Watson-and-Crick" fame) offers an unusually personal look at his profession
* Includes photographs
