Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. Born a poor black tobacco farmer, her cancer cells - taken without her knowledge - became a multimillion-dollar industry and one of the most important tools in medicine. Yet Henrietta's family did not learn of her 'immortality' until more than twenty years after her death, with devastating consequences ...Balancing the beauty and drama of scientific discovery with dark questions about who owns the stuff our bodies are made of, "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" is an extraordinary journey in search of the soul and story of a real woman, whose cells live on today in all four corners of the world. "A fascinating, harrowing, necessary book". (Hilary Mantel, "Guardian"). "A heartbreaking account of racism and injustice". ("Metro"). "A fine book...a gripping read...The book has deservedly been a huge bestseller in the US. It should be here, too". ("Sunday Times").

Marvelous book! Halfway of reading this book, I have a sense that the grudges of the Lacks family originate from their distrust of doctors and their destitution. As more I read, I acknowledge the pain...Marvelous book!

一位真正成为肉身不朽的人类，HeLa细胞以其独特的超强无限复制能力遍布全球，为医疗事业做出了巨大的贡献，这是作为主体病人绝对无法预计的事情。随着影响的加剧，病人样本的所有权，商业利益如何分配以及一些列伦理的问题呈现出来。所幸这些在那个时代还不足以成为阻碍科学进展的因素，否则医学可能真的会远比现在滞后。

其实在读这本书的时候我也在想，作者本身会不会也是bias的。这本书虽然提供了一个视角，也提出了对那个年代信息不对等导致的科研伦理不道德的研究，但我个人认为这种不道德其实并不仅存在于那种极端情况。ps这本书没有多少专业信息，可以当做普通传记看。
