Starred Review. Mukherjee's debut book is a sweeping epic of obsession, brilliant researchers, dramatic new treatments, euphoric success and tragic failure, and the relentless battle by scientists and patients alike against an equally relentless, wily, and elusive enemy. From the first chemotherapy developed from textile dyes to the possibilities emerging from our understanding of cancer cells, Mukherjee shapes a massive amount of history into a coherent story with a roller-coaster trajectory: the discovery of a new treatment--surgery, radiation, chemotherapy--followed by the notion that if a little is good, more must be better, ending in disfiguring radical mastectomy and multidrug chemo so toxic the treatment ended up being almost worse than the disease. The first part of the book is driven by the obsession of Sidney Farber and philanthropist Mary Lasker to find a unitary cure for all cancers. (Farber developed the first successful chemotherapy for childhood leukemia.) The last and most exciting part is driven by the race of brilliant, maverick scientists to understand how cells become cancerous. Each new discovery was small, but as Mukherjee, a Columbia professor of medicine, writes, "Incremental advances can add up to transformative changes." Mukherjee's formidable intelligence and compassion produce a stunning account of the effort to disrobe the "emperor of maladies." (Nov.) (c)

具體描述
讀後感
2013年快过去3个月了，看了一堆书，这是第一本好书。 首先，作者很会讲故事，运用了很多小说上的技术，使人如看侦探小说。 其次，翻译流畅，李虎老师的翻译很流畅，没有磕磕盼盼的地方。 最后，这本书的装帧很喜欢。
評分 評分癌症源于我们自身的一些负责调节细胞生长的基础基因的突变。而这种突变基因导致的癌细胞有时会展现出永不停止的分裂。在合适的环境下癌细胞可以一直分裂下去，没有衰老的痕迹，这透露出永生的意味。而这种带着永生意味的分裂却会摧毁我们的身体，带来无可避免的死亡。 这真是...
評分《白色巨塔》 山崎丰子的不朽巨著，电视剧也是不可逾越的高峰。可以更深入地了解医生的动机和心态。 《梦想之城》 美国独立战争前后前后的医学世家传记（虚构的），可以看到那个时代的医学面貌。 《冬至草》 另一位身兼癌症专家和作家身份的人所写的作品。
評分还没地方买，中信出版的书以图快为重点，翻译的书评差的一塌糊涂，以前看过的《黑天鹅》<《货币崛起》等十几本图书都翻译的极差，大段漏译，错译。 不过佛格森的《帝国》翻译的尚可。我习惯拿着中文译本听英语语音版。等我读完再评价翻译水平。
用戶評價
推薦購買。知識量很大，有機會再度一遍。
评分癌癥診治的古往今來。修辭文雅，用典繁復。曆史記載和作者親身接觸的病例的交錯齣現，讓讀者持續保持關心。可以作為《不朽的海拉細胞》之後的深度閱讀。
评分: R73/M953
评分cancer as metaphor. 把目標定為延長生命而非終結死亡
评分伴隨著我渡過瞭紐約律所實習時的地鐵時光，有時晚上加班睏極瞭，讀著讀著就睡著，醒來發現坐過瞭站，而夜太深local的列車又停運瞭，隻得穿過許多街區走過哥大校園迴到齣租屋。現在都不知道，讓我沮喪的，是關於癌癥的論調，還是工作。想起曾經讀到過的，彆急著覺得自己一無所有，你還可以有病呢。
