Siddhartha Mukherjee is a cancer physician and researcher. He is an assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University and a staff cancer physician at the CU/NYU Presbytarian Hospital. A former Rhodes scholar, he graduated from Stanford University, University of Oxford (where he received a PhD studying cancer-causing viruses) and from Harvard Medical School. His laboratory focuses on discovering new cancer drugs using innovative biological methods. Mukherjee trained in cancer medicine at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute of Harvard Medical School and was on the staff at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He has published articles and commentary in such journals as Nature, New England Journal of Medicine, Neuron and the Journal of Clinical Investigation and in publications such as the New York Times and the New Republic. His work was nominated for Best American Science Writing, 2000 (edited by James Gleick). He lives in Boston and New York with his wife, Sarah Sze, an artist, and with his daughter, Leela.
The Emperor of All Maladies is 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. Physician, researcher, and award-winning science writer, Siddhartha Mukherjee examines cancer with a cellular biologist’s precision, a historian’s perspective, and a biographer’s passion. The result is an astonishingly lucid and eloquent chronicle of a disease humans have lived with—and perished from—for more than five thousand years.
The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance, but also of hubris, paternalism, and misperception. Mukherjee recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of his predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out “war against cancer.” The book reads like a literary thriller with cancer as the protagonist.
From the Persian Queen Atossa, whose Greek slave may have cut off her diseased breast, to the nineteenth-century recipients of primitive radiation and chemotherapy to Mukherjee’s own leukemia patient, Carla, The Emperor of All Maladies is about the people who have soldiered through fiercely demanding regimens in order to survive—and to increase our understanding of this iconic disease.
Riveting, urgent, and surprising, The Emperor of All Maladies provides a fascinating glimpse into the future of cancer treatments. It is an illuminating book that provides hope and clarity to those seeking to demystify cancer.
开学前拿到的书,因为这学期特别忙,所以看了很长时间才看完。书的内容很不错,可以打五颗星,不过翻译一般,只能给三颗半星;比如相邻两段同一个人的名字可以翻译成两个不同的样子,再比如有个地方,反式视黄酸和顺式视黄酸有些地方似乎写反了,看起来逻辑关系不对。 虽是科普...
評分很早就看完了,一直想要找个时间写这本书的书评,由于准备考研一直就把这个给拖后了。或许很多细节记得不是那么清楚了,我只想写写我看这本书的整个过程。 爸是在今年3月份查出癌症的,之前一直医生误以为是由于肾结石引起的左肾肿大变形,直到最后把左肾切除后做了活检才发现...
評分这本《The Emperorof All Maladies》作者SiddharthaMukhejee(看名字是印度裔的)是一个肿瘤医生,在他行医过程中,因为需要不断的向患者解释癌症的来龙去脉而诞生了写一本关于癌症这种疾病的传记的想法,并把它非常辉煌地以36万5千字付诸实施,2010年6月成书在美国出版,2011...
