In 'The Emperor of All Maladies', Siddhartha Mukherjee offers a comprehensive biography of cancer, from its origins to the search for a cure. Combining medical history, cutting-edge science, and narrative journalism, the author transforms the reader's understanding of this disease. Mukherjee provides a glimpse into the future of cancer treatments and offers a new perspective on how doctors, scientists, philosophers, and lay people have observed and understood the human body throughout the centuries. This book recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary.
