Overview

James D. Watson looks back on his extraordinary and varied career - from its beginnings as a schoolboy in Chicago's South Side to the day he left Harvard almost 50 years later, world-renowned as the co-discoverer of DNA - and considersthe lessons he has learnt along the way. The result is both anengagingly eccentric memoir and an insightful compendiumof lessons in life for aspiring scientists. Avoid Boring People, is a quirky, original, wise, and infuriatingly un-put-downable blend of candid anecdotes and revealing insights into the life of one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century.
