...Hodgkin's orderly mind seems to thrive on a diet of clutter and clatter. After graduation from Oxford, when she went into research, her first lab was in a dingy basement under the university museum. It was her precarious exercise to climb a ladder to a gallery while carrying the delicate crystals with which she worked. But whatever the circumstances, she maintained an elegance of appearance and achievement. No distraction was enough to spoil the work that led to a thorough knowledge of the penicillin molecule, and to the discovery of the structure of Vitamin B12, the recalcitrant molecule...

Keating is a familiar figure there, and one sign that greeted him read: KEATING AND ISRAEL go TOGETHER LIKE BAGELS AND LOX. In that same district, Bobby spurned the ethnic diet, chose melon, split-pea soup and chocolate milk.

U.S. promoters have introduced the doughnut to Africa and Asia, spread the benefits of milk to the Middle East and Latin America, made wheat a popular substitute for rice in the Japanese diet. They have increased grain sales to Italy by showing Italians how to mix American wheat into their pastas, amazed European housewives (many of whom now work and have less time to cook) with packaged mixes that produce effortless cakes, pies, mashed potatoes, cheese dips and even pizzas. One of the fastest-growing exports...
