Vládkyně všech nemocí
Vědecký thriller o zhoubném nádoru překvapuje čtenáře celého světa svým strhujícím tempem a hluboce lidským vyzněním. Jeho autor Siddharta Mukherjee, lékař, vědec a oceňovaný spisovatel, se na nádorové onemocnění dívá s precizností buněčného biologa, s nadhledem historika a se zaujetím životopisce. Výsledkem je úžasně poutavá kronika nemoci, s níž lidé žijí a umírají více než pět tisíc let. Životopis rakoviny začíná prvními doloženými zmínkami ve starověku, graduje epochální bitvou ve dvacátém století, kdy se lidé snažili nemoc vyléčit, ovládnout a porazit, a zatím končí radikálně novým pochopením její podstaty. Mukherjee byl za svou knihu oceněn Pulitzerovou cenou (2011) a cenou deníku Guardian. Časopis TIME dílo zařadil mezi 100 nejvlivnějších anglických knih od roku 1923 a New York Times Magazine mezi 100 nejlepších odborných knih všech dob. Siddhartha Mukherjee (nar. 1970) je světoznámý americký lékař a vědec indického původu, specialista v oborech hematologie a onkologie. Studoval na špičkových amerických školách, nyní pracuje na Kolumbijské univerzitě v New Yorku.
De keizer aller ziektes
De keizer aller ziektes, een biografie van kanker, beschrijft de ziekte van de eerste gedocumenteerde gevallen duizenden jaren geleden tot de dag van vandaag en biedt zelfs een blik in de toekomst. Siddhartha Mukherjee, oncoloog, onderzoeker en gelauwerd auteur, onderzoekt kanker met de precisie van een celbioloog, het perspectief van een historicus en de hartstocht van een biograaf.

Het is een verhaal van vindingrijkheid, veerkracht en doorzettingsvermogen, maar ook van overmoed, paternalisme en onbegrip. Mukherjee doet verslag van decennia van on...
Kanker: Biografi Suatu Penyakit
“Dalam menulis buku ini, saya memulainya dengan membayangkan proyek saya sebagai ‘sejarah’ kanker. Namun lama-lama terasa seolah saya bukan sedang menulis tentang sesuatu, melainkan seseorang. Subjek saya hari demi hari berubah menjadi menyerupai individu—cerminan suatu diri yang membingungkan sekaligus gila. Buku ini bukan hanya sejarah medis suatu penyakit, melainkan sesuatu yang lebih pribadi, lebih mendalam: biografi.” Kanker merupakan penyakit yang amat besar pengaruhnya, dapat mengubah hidup pasien maupun orang-orang di sekelilingnya. Kanker juga memiliki banyak wajah dan variasi; itu karena kanker bukan hanya satu penyakit, melainkan banyak penyakit dengan ciri sama: pertumbuhan sel tak terkendali. Melawan kanker seolah melawan tubuh yang berkhianat: sel-sel kita sendiri yang berubah jadi ganas dan lepas kendali. Apa sebenarnya kanker itu? Sejak kapan kanker mulai menyerang manusia? Apa penyebab kanker? Bisakah dan bagaimanakah kanker disembuhkan dan dicegah? Buku ini, ditulis seorang dokter kanker, menawarkan jawaban untuk semua pertanyaan itu.
