In a new preface to this special edition of his critically
acclaimed memoir, Francois Jacob recalls the events that brought
him to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in the early 1960's and taught
him much about phage biology and the informal ways of American
science. Throughout his book, Jacob demonstrates a scientist's eye
for detail and a poet's instinct for the inner life, as he tells of
a privileged Parisian boyhood, young love, heroism in war, and the
fascination of life at the edge of scientific discovery.
