Book of the Month
The Immortal Life of Henrietta LacksRebecca Skloot
Henrietta Lacks was a poor Southern tobacco farmer, but her cancer cells, taken without her knowledge, were to form the basis of some of medicine's greatest breakthroughs. The cultured cells have been bought and sold in their billions and used to develop the polio vaccine and to reveal the workings of cancer cells and viruses, as well as being the starting point of advances such as in vitro fertilization, cloning and gene mapping. Rebecca Skloot tracks down the unmarked grave in which Henrietta was buried and tells her story from her birth in the 'colored' ward in Johns Hopkins Hospital to the legacy she has left her grandchildren living in East Baltimore today. A story of remarkable scientific discovery and its human cost.
