The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot - Official Trailer

Great book. Curious as to how the Lacks family is doing financially. A good part of the book focused on how bitter they were early on about everyone making money from the cells except them.

I really like this book! I read in Chinese, and I never heard HeLa before. I think I learn a lot from this book. Thank you!

This is such a fascinating book. It's about family, 20th century race relations, academic jealousies and so much more than merely cancer cells. It's not a "science book" although science comes into it. Rather it's a moving tale of children finally getting to know the truth about their long-dead mother. It has lessons about the harm secrets and prejudices can bring. Everyone should find something to take away from it.It deserves all the accolades it's receiving.
