摘要

当《万病之王》在2010年底出版时,我就知道它将是我书堆中最值得一读的书。因为我是一名科学和医学史的博士生,所以读一本关于癌症及其治疗历史的著名书籍是必须的。不幸的是,在这本书出版的时候,我母亲刚刚意外去世,享年82岁,她之前从未得到过一种疾病的诊断:癌症,确切地说,是急性骨髓性白血病。从诊断到死亡只用了6天。因此,我犹豫着要不要深入研究癌症,这种疾病让我和我的家人因如此突然的失去而感到震惊和悲伤。然而,我的理由是,这本书的方法将是超然的和科学的,也许类似于我每周处理的学术大部头的基调。我开始读。

Siddhartha Mukherjee. The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer
When The Emperor of All Maladies was published in late 2010, I knew it would be near the top of my stack of books to read. Since I am a PhD student in the History of Science and Medicine, reading a notable book on the history of cancer and its treatments is a must. Sadly, at the time of its publication, my mother had just died unexpectedly at age 82 of a disease for which she had never received a prior diagnosis: cancer, or acute myelogenous leukemia, to be exact. From diagnosis to death took a mere six days. So I hesitated to take this in-depth look at cancer, a disease that left my family and me stunned and grieving from such a sudden loss. I reasoned, however, that the approach of the book would be detached and scientific, perhaps similar to the tone of the academic tomes that I tackle each week. I began to read.
