Hendes navn var Henrietta Lacks, men videnskaben kendte hende som HeLa. Hun var en fattig sort tobaks arbejder, hvis celler – som blev taget uden hendes vidende i 1951 – blev et af de vigtigste redskaber i den medicinske forskning; centrale for udviklingen af polio vaccinen, kloning, kortlægning af gener osv. Henriettas celler er blevet købt og solgt i milliardvis; alligevel er hun stadig stort set ukendt, og hendes familie har ikke råd til en sundhedsforsikring. Denne fremragende New York Times-bestseller fortæller en medrivende historie om sammenstødet mellem etik, race og lægevidenskab; om videnskabelige opdagelser og troens helende kraft; om en datter, der er besat af spørgsmål om den mor, hun aldrig lærte at kende. Før Henrietta Lacks’ udødelige liv blev udgivet første gang, etablerede Rebecca Skloot Henrietta Lacks Foundation. En del af overskuddet fra denne bog doneres af forfatteren til fonden. Se HenriettaLacks-Foundation.org. "Det lyder bizart. Det er bizart. Og en meget interessant og passioneret fortalt historie fra videnskabens verden. Denne bog er unputdownable." - Information

HeLa: una sigla che indica una linea cellulare di vitale importanza nelle ricerche sul cancro e su molte altre malattie. Una sigla che si riferisce a Henrietta Lacks, morta di tumore nel 1951, e da cui quelle cellule miracolose furono prelevate. Rebecca Skloot ricostruisce la vita, la morte, e il lascito di una donna, ponendo domande ineludibili in cui etica e medicina si intrecciano indissolubilmente: chi dispone del materiale biologico di cui siamo fatti? Chi custodisce la memoria di ciò che siamo stati?

"En fascinerande bok", betyg 4 - Yukiko Duke i Gomorron Sverige "Djupt förbryllad har jag läst en intressant bok, som ställer frågor om min egen dödlighet." - PO Enqvist i Expressen "En av de märkvärdigaste böcker jag läst... en enastående historia" - Ingalill Mosander i Aftonbladet "En märkvärdig bok, omöjlig att lägga ifrån sig." - Oline Stig i Sydsvenskan "En av de mest utsökta och rörande faktaböcker jag läst." - New York Times I januari 1951 diagnosticerades Henrietta Lacks med cancer. Nio månader senare avled hon. Men de cellprov som hennes läkare tog lever fortfarande. De har gett upphov till tre Nobelpris, de låg till grund för poliovaccinet, de har varit på månen. Men ingen kände till den fattiga, svarta tobaksodlaren som var alltings upphov. Den odödliga Henrietta Lacks är en storartad berättelse om vetenskapens fantastiska förmåga att skapa ett bra liv för oss alla. Men också en tragisk historia om krocken mellan medicin, etik och ras. Och inte minst en djupt skakande berättelse om en dotter som förtärdes av frågor om sin mor som hon aldrig fick lära känna.

The term arthrogryposis describes a range of congenital contractures that lead to childhood deformities. It encompasses a number of syndromes and sporadic deformities that are rare individually but collectively are not uncommon. Yet, the existing medical literature on arthrogryposis is sparse and often confusing. The aim of this book is to provide individuals affected with arthrogryposis, their families, and health care professionals with a helpful guide to better understand the condition and its therapy. With this goal in mind, the editors have taken great care to ensure that the presentation of complex clinical information is at once scientifically accurate, patient oriented, and accessible to readers without a medical background. The book is authored primarily by members of the medical staff of the Arthrogryposis Clinic at Children's Hospital and Medical Center in Seattle, Washington, one of the leading teams in the management of the condition, and will be an invaluable resource for both health care professionals and families of affected individuals.

Adam is a stay-at-home dad who is also working on a history of the bombing and rebuilding of Coventry Cathedral. He is a good man and he is happy. But one day, he receives a call from his daughter's school to inform him that, for no apparent reason, fifteen-year-old Miriam has collapsed and stopped breathing. In that moment, he is plunged into a world of waiting, agonising, not knowing. The story of his life and the lives of his family are rewritten and re-told around this shocking central event, around a body that has inexplicably failed. In this exceptionally courageous and unflinching novel of contemporary life Sarah Moss goes where most of us wouldn't dare to look, and the result is riveting - unbearably sad, but also miraculously funny and ultimately hopeful. The Tidal Zone explores parental love, overwhelming fear, illness and recovery. It is about clever teenagers and the challenges of marriage. It is about the NHS, academia, sex and gender in the twenty-first century, the work-life juggle, and the politics of packing lunches and loading dishwashers. It confirms Sarah Moss as a unique voice in modern fiction and a writer of luminous intelligence.

One March morning, writer Floyd Skloot was inexplicably struck by an attack of unrelenting vertigo that ended 138 days later as suddenly as it had begun. With body and world askew, everything familiar had transformed. Nothing was ever still. Revertigo is Skloot’s account of that unceasingly vertiginous period, told in an inspired and appropriately off-kilter form. This intimate memoir—tenuous, shifting, sometimes humorous—demonstrates Skloot’s considerable literary skill honed as an award-winning essayist, memoirist, novelist, and poet. His recollections of a strange, spinning world prompt further musings on the forces of uncertainty, change, and displacement that have shaped him from childhood to late middle age, repeatedly knocking him awry, realigning his hopes and plans, even his perceptions. From the volatile forces of his mercurial, shape-shifting early years to his obsession with reading, acting, and writing, from the attack of vertigo to a trio of postvertigo (but nevertheless dizzying) journeys to Spain and England, and even to a place known only in his mother’s unhinged fantasies, Skloot makes sense of a life’s phantasmagoric unpredictability.
