Summary: In the years since Mukherjee dazzled readers with THE EMPEROR OF ALL MALADIES, much has changed in the universe of cancer--in our understanding of its causes; in our attempts to prevent it; and in the emerging and revolutionary new treatments, including those Mukherjee himself helped devise for leukemia and lymphoma. In four profound and revolutionary new chapters--essentially a new book about cancer--he illuminates the landscape of this disease with both a bird's-eye view and an acute focus on the role of the cell and its tissue environment. He also looks at new studies and to the future. Riveting, audacious, and now more urgent than ever in this vast updated THE EMPEROR OF ALL MALADIES is a masterpiece"--Front jacket flap.
