The Double Helix
Anybody who has read The Double Helix [knows that] it’s a very compelling story. I remember in 1988 when [Jim Watson's] 60th birthday party was here. All his students came back in the afternoon and they showed the movie The Double Helix with what’s his name, Jeff Goldblum. It was exciting it gave me goose pimples. I don’t know. I think there are so few books that captured the excitement of scientific discovery like that.
