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)

评分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。
评分 评分《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。
