Description
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan
(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)
The story of a poor southern tobacco farmer who became one of the most important assets in medical research.
Henrietta Lacks was a woman who was born to make a difference. Her cells were completely unique, they had the ability to proliferate indefinitely. She was the bearer of the first immortal human cells grown in culture, which are still alive even though she passed away sixty years ago. Henrietta Lacks served a key role for the development of polio vaccine, cancer research and even studies related to atomic bombs. She also made cloning, gene mapping, and vitro fertilization possible. She was a real gem of humanity and without her, medical research wouldn't be where it is today.

"But I tell you one thing, I don't want to be immortal if it mean living forever, cause then everybody else just die and get old in front of you while you stay the same, and that's just sad." – Rebecca Skloot
Despite being vital for the human kind, she remains unknown by many and buried in an unmarked grave. Rebecca Skloot made it her priority to get the word out about this amazing woman and how she helped everyone even though nobody lent her a hand. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks portrays the story of this brave woman and the vile medical industry that gained billions by selling human biological materials without giving her a single dime.
Skloot uncovers the unabridged story of Henrietta after 10 years of research. Are you ready to learn about her amazing achievements and the dark side of medicine?
P.S. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is an extraordinary book that uncovers a story about a woman we should all know.
