Double Helix II

By SOPHFRONIA SCOTT GREGORY

JAMES WATSON, co-discoverer of DNA'S STRUCTURE, is hard at work on an autobiography, and the science world expects it to be every bit as frank and irreverent as The Double Helix, his acclaimed account of his Nobel- prizewinning work. In the sequel, there may be some choice words about Bernadine Healy, his former boss at the National Institutes of Health. Disputes between the two helped lead to Watson's resignation as head of the mammoth project to map the human genome.
