La lutte contre le cancer est une histoire humaine : une aventure pleine de découvertes, et une célébration de la ténacité des hommes.
Le besoin de connaître ce vieil ennemi est plus fort que jamais. Des premiers traitements chirurgicaux, novateurs mais brutaux, aux travaux des époux Curie sur les radiations ; de la mise au point de la chimiothérapie jusqu'au traitement des patients de l'auteur lui-même, ce livre captivant retrace un combat plusieurs fois centenaire.
Dévoilant en un récit exceptionnel le chemin parcouru pour résoudre l'un des grands mystères de la science, Siddhartha Mukherjee offre un aperçu fascinant de nos progrès futurs.
