Notes From Your Bookseller

The book that fundamentally changed the way we understand the deadly disease — from Ancient Egypt to the present day — written by a trained hematologist and oncologist who also crafts beautiful sentences.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, this New York Times bestseller is “an extraordinary achievement” (The New Yorker)—a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer—from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago through the epic battles in the twentieth century to cure, control, and conquer it to a radical new understanding of its essence.

Now includes an excerpt from Siddhartha Mukherjee’s new book Song of the Cell!
