"Watson and DNA" Description:
The Open Library:
"The most influential scientist of the last half century, James Watson has been at dead center in the creation of modern molecular biology. Since the very morning after his Nobel Prize-winning discovery, Watson has continued to ride the scientific supernova that he and his collaborator, Francis Crick, detonated in 1953. Targeting the big questions, mobilizing the best talent, writing the textbook that defined molecular biology, and starting the human genome project, he has served as a prime mover of the DNA era.". "In this masterful and fascinating biography, distinguished science reporter Victor McElheny, who has known Watson for decades, takes us inside the post double helix revolution in biology. With unique access to the scientists involved and who know Watson best, he offers an intimate view of science in the making, from the discovery of the double helix in 1953 to the launching of the genome project in 1988 and beyond. In the process, he brings to life the remarkable achievements of not only Watson but also of others working on this cutting edge of scientific discovery, such as the Nobel Prize winners Francois Jacob, Walter Gilbert, Richard Roberts, Philip Sharp, Sydney Brenner, and Robert Horvitz."--BOOK JACKET.
