Apart from the purely scientific, theoretical aspects of their work, what institutional, political, financial, personal, and otherinterests were at work? Here you should consider in particular financial matters, including Watson’s fellowships, especially the problems he had with his Fellowship Board in Washington, D.C. You should also consider political problems (Pauling), additional personal interactions (Peter Pauling, tennis, hiking, pub crawling), and any other influences you think were at work that help to delineate the dynamics of creative work in science that are influential but not directly related to the data, experiments, and logic ofscientific discovery itself. What does Crick have to say about their working relationship, Watson’s personality, and in particular what he believed were the major elements contributing to their success? See also what F.X.S. had to say about this in (Watson/Stent 1980, pp. 177?185).What role did Rosalind Franklin play in research dealing with DNA? What personal and professional (or unprofessional) elements become particularly important in accounting for the way her work was used by Watson and Crick? Does she deserve more credit thanWatson gives her for the crystallographic data she amassed? What roles do secrecy and competition play in the overall development of a scientific theory? Are these essential, or should ways be found to ensure open exchange of information in a uniform way? What do you make of the criticisms that have been offered in response to Watson’s book? Which of the reviews do you find the most convincing, and why? With which ones do you disagree most? Can you draw any conclusions about how science ought to be organizedto reach, most effectively, its experimental and theoretical goals? What features are most important in stimulating scientific creativity and originality? Is Watson’s account typical, in your opinion, of scientific discovery in general, or is it the egocentric viewpoint of an eccentric sensationalist? Be sure to quote from at least four different reviews in assessing Watson’s account of the discovery of the double helix, and contrasting the major differences between those who reviewed his book when it was first published.NOTE: You should post the first draft of the third essay assignment by December 3 (50 points).
