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.

如果重來,我會把這本書列入中學書單。
評分有點失望,囉裏八嗦的,行文結構和文筆都缺少特色,就勝在一個全字。
評分關於人類Cancer的記述。據統計50%的美國人生命中都會得至少一次Cancer。沒有亞洲人數據,估計也不會低。

医学就是医学,没什么中外东西。像癌症这种病,发现它对抗它的必定是一个充满活力充满基础发明创造和认识能力的社会。不单是医学的发展,包括化学、生物学甚至物理学等等各种学科的交融才能从多个角度对这种可怕的病症展开作战,从手术到放疗到化疗到基因攻击,挽救了无数人的...
評分“……可以认为癌症在试图仿效一个再生器官;或者更令人不安的是在仿效一个再生的有机体。其对永生不死的追求反映了我们自己的追求,埋藏在我们的胚胎和器官重生中的一种追求。有一天,如果癌症成功了,它将产生一个比其宿主更加完美的生命,具有不死的特性和增殖的动力。...
評分 評分这是我迄今为止读过最好的科普书。 毫 无疑问,这是一本工程浩大的经典,一本详实严谨的科学著作,同时,它也是一本史诗般的传记。如果说写作的对象在一定程度上决定写作的结果,那这本书的主题 ——被作者称为万疾之王的癌症,在我看来,应该是长长的人类疾病名单中(其实不...
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。
