Lauren T. (littlegirl) - reviewed on 2/5/2012 + 37 more book reviews

This was a really interesting look at the woman behind one of biology's most famous cell lines. If you liked Splendid Solution, about the discovery of the polio vaccine, I think you would also like this book a lot as well. The author's description of the challenges she faced writing book was a bit of an intrusion, but really shed a light on the lives of Henrietta's descendants, which is important to the story.
