Description
Rebecca Skloot chronicles the life of Henrietta Lacks, a woman who died from cervical cancer at the age of 31. Before her death, doctors culled cells from Henrietta, cultivating the first set of 'immortal' cells ever, and used them to engineer breakthrough cancer treatments, the polio vaccine, and other crucial medical and scientific advancements. Henrietta's family, though, never knew any of this until twenty years after her death and never received any of the profits from the use of her cells.
