Emperor of All Maladies : Hardback : Simon & Schuster : 9781439107959 : 1439107955 : 16 Nov 2010 : \"The Emperor of All Maladies\" reads like a novel, but it deals with real people and real successes, as well as with the many false notions and false leads. Not only will the book bring cancer research and cancer biology to the lay public, it will help attract young researchers to a field that is at once exciting, heart wrenching, and important.--Donald Berry, Ph.D., Anderson Cancer Center, University of Texas.
