Siddhartha Mukherjee crafts a sweeping "biography" of cancer, tracing the disease from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago to the cutting-edge research of today. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, it's a masterful blend of science, history, and human stories.
Siddhartha Mukherjee traces the history of the gene from Gregor Mendel's garden to the frontiers of CRISPR, weaving together science, history, and his own family's experience with genetic illness. It's a sweeping narrative about the code that makes us who we are.
