The Immortal Life of Henrietta Laks

Author: Rebecca Skloots
Stars: 5
Review by: Inveterate Reader
Destination: US


This was a magnificent, awesome book that told the story of cancer cell research.   How it was conducted....how the donor didn't even know her cells were being used for research.   And what they did for the cancer research project.  HeLa cells are used today.  Parts of it are difficult to get through, but worth the effort.
