The Song of the Cell: An Exploration of Medicine and the New
Human
Description :
From the author of The Emperor of All Maladies, winner of the
Pulitzer Prize, and The Gene, a #1 New York Times bestseller, comes
his most spectacular book yet, an exploration of medicine and our
radical new ability to manipulate cells. Rich with
Mukherjee’srevelatory and exhilarating stories of scientists,
doctors, and the patients whose lives may be saved by their work,
The Song of the Cell is the third book in this extraordinary
writer’sexploration of what it means to be human.Mukherjee
begins this magnificent story in the late 1600s, when a distinguished
English polymath, Robert Hooke, and an eccentric Dutch clothmerchant,
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek looked down their handmade
microscopes. What they saw introduced a radical concept that swept
through biology and medicine, touching virtually every aspect of the
two sciences, and altering both forever. It was the fact that complex
living organisms are assemblages of tiny, self-contained, selfregulating
units. Our organs, our physiology, our
selves—herts, blood, brains—ar built from these
compartments. Hooke christened them “cels”The
discovery of cells—an the reframing of the human body as a
cellular ecosystem—anounced the birth of a new kind of
medicine based on the therapeutic manipulations of cells. A hip
fracture, a cardiac arrest, Alzheimer’sdementia, AIDS,
pneumonia, lung cancer, kidney failure, arthritis, COVID
pneumonia—al could be reconceived as the results of cells, or
systems of cells, functioning abnormally. And all could be perceived
as loci of cellular therapies.In The Song of the Cell, Mukherjee tells
the story of how scientists discovered cells, began to understand
them, and are now using that knowledge to create new humans. He
seduces you with writing so vivid, lucid, and suspenseful that
complex science becomes thrilling. Told in six parts, laced with
Mukherjee’sown experience as a researcher, a doctor, and a
prolific reader, The Song of the Cell is both panoramic and
intimate—amasterpiece.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase
