PROFESSOR JACQUES MONOD Nobel Laureate of the Institut Pasteur in Paris talks to GERALD LEACH
When in 1965 a Nobel prize was awarded jointly to Andre Lwolf, Jacques Monod, and Francois Jacob, it ended a thirty-year period during which no French scientist had won a Nobel prize. The award was for work at a very basic, even molecular, level on the genetic mechanisms controlling protein and virus synthesis - the so-called gene regulating genes.
Professor Monod's conversation with Gerald Leach is partly scientific, partly philosophical, partly plain biographical - it is, in fact... a conversation.
by Basil Bunting
This poem. read by the poet himself, is described as 'an autography' and relates themes and incidents from his life in the north of England with images and impressions gathered during travels abroad. The poem is introduced by an explanatory comment specially written for the broadcast by Kenneth Cox.
