Quick, who won the Nobel Prize for discovering the double helical structure of DNA? Most people would say Watson and Crick. But most people would make Maurice Wilkins very upset. The Rodney Dangerfield of biology, Wilkins shared the prize with Watson and Crick but missed out on the limelight, due largely to Watson's hit book, The Double Helix. Wilkins thought the book was so misleading he asked Harvard University Press not to publish it. Things have quieted down a bit now, and Wilkins is now telling the story his way.

谁因发现DNA的双螺旋结构而获得诺贝尔奖？大多数人会说沃森和克里克。但大多数人都会让莫里斯·威尔金斯很不高兴。作为生物学的罗德尼·丹格菲尔德（Rodney Dangerfield），威尔金斯与沃森和克里克分享了这一奖项，但由于沃森的畅销书《双螺旋线》（The Double Helix）而错过了聚光灯。威尔金斯认为这本书是如此的误导，他要求哈佛大学出版社不要出版。事情现在平静了一些，威尔金斯正在用他的方式讲述这个故事。
