General Analysis
ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot tells the compelling story of Henrietta Lacks, a black woman whose cancer cells, taken without her knowledge in 1951, became the first immortal human cell line known as HeLa. The book intertwines the scientific journey of these cells, which revolutionized medicine and led to numerous breakthroughs, with the personal story of Henrietta and her family. It explores themes of race, class, medical ethics, and the Lacks family's struggle to understand and come to terms with their mother's unexpected legacy and the lack of recognition they received for her contribution to science.
