    A good Black history science narrative

    Recommended this book for a Bookgroup read. Good balance between the scientific narrative and the family history, but Henrietta Lacks herself does remain a victim of experimental exploitation, despite the advances made from her cells. I'm pleased to be reading the book and I would most certainly recommend its future listing as essential reading in schools and colleges. Also very reasonably priced and easy to get hold of...you really need to stick with it to get the most out of it...as it deserves re-reading to absorb the science facts

  • Awesome.. Amazing... Emotional..

    This is the most interesting and inspiring book I've read in a long, long time. This truely wonderful lady Henrietta Lacks has at last been recognised for pioneeering medical work, even though she herself never knew anyting about it. God Bless her and her family. Myself and many others are possibly still here today becasue of her cells. Lets hope that more and more is possible as the years go on.. Thankyou Rebecca Skloot for bringing this into the open, it would be nice to have a follow up in the future.

  • Well researched and a truly heartfelt book - a gift that the story has been told !

    Everyone should read this book if they have any interest in the world of medicine or black civil rights - absoulutely brilliant book and a story that we may otherwise not have heard. Well researched and a fascinating read - sad at times but worthy of your time.

  • Not very good at all!

    The description says minimal damage to front cover, minor scuffs. It's been folded many times and is actually in quite a state!! My 5 year olds books are in a better condition!
