摘要

A young man of 18, having hesitantly prepared his registration documents for medical school, takes his place in line at the university to hand them in. While waiting, he notices that the line beside his is for registration in the natural sciences. Suddenly, an exciting thought enters his mind: Perhaps I should switch lines! But no, that would mean filling in an entire new set of registration forms. Better to stay put. The place was Turin, the time 1940. Eventually all of the students at the university except those in medical school would be drafted to fight in World War Ⅱ. The young man's laziness would thus prove to be a stroke of luck. His name? Luigi Cavalli—now L. Luca Cavalli-Sforza. After medical school and a brilliant stint as a bacterial geneticist, he would take up population genetics and demonstrate the all-important role of chance in the evolution of mankind. So despite his choice of lines in 1940, it would be in the natural sciences rather than in medicine that he would make his great contributions.

Luca Cavalli-Sforza）。医学院毕业后，作为细菌遗传学家出色地任职后，他将从事种群遗传学研究，并展示机会在人类进化中的最重要作用。因此，尽管他在1940年选择了研究方向，但他将在自然科学而不是医学上做出巨大的贡献。
