Robert K. Merton

The New York Times Book Review

A fascinating case history...Describes the events that led up to one of the great biological discoveries of our time.


Jacob Bronowski

The Nation

No one could miss the excitement in this story of a great and beautiful discovery....The book communicates the spirit of science as no formal account has ever done....the sense of the future, the high spirits, and the rivalry and the guesses right and wrong, the surge of imagination and the test of fact.


Peter B. Medewar

The New York Review of Books

An enormous success...a classic.


Andre Lwoff

Scientific American

The history of a scientific endeavor, a true detective story that leaves the reader breathless from beginning to end.


Richard Feynman

He has described admirably how it feels to have that frightening and beautiful experience of making a scientific discovery.
