A few days later, he was in the group that met Soviet Premier Aleksei Kosygin at Peking Airport. Last month Li was the first Chinese official to make a statement on Richard Nixon's major address on Viet Nam. His line at the time was a tough one.

There are two different viruses, the Harvard researchers knew, that invade an intestinal bacteria called E.coli and make off with several of its genes. But the two viruses capture only one bacterial gene in common: the one that enables E.coli to digest lactose, a sugar. Furthermore, the direction in which this so-called lac gene is inserted into the DNA molecule of one virus is opposite...
