About this work

Description

Correspondence regarding the organization of the Fourth (NATO) Advanced Study Institute of Molecular Biology, at Spetsai (6-19 July, 1969).

The file contains two letters from James Watson (11 March, 1968, to Brian Clark, and 20 March, 1968, to Crick) in which he declines to attend. In the second of these letters, Watson writes: "... I have the real feeling that the junta will only make matters worse and that by 1969 the oppression will be worse, not better, and that it will increasingly paralyze the operation of the better academic minds in Greece."

It should be noted that this correspondence file overlaps considerably with the first correspondence file.
