Description

There are countless academic books on the subject of childhood leukemia. The idea behind this book, however, is very different. Here, we look at the extraordinary story of childhood leukemia from very distinct and unique perspectives: a distinguished physician who has lived through the transition of the disease from despair to success (and who played a key role in the latter); a distinguished laboratory scientist who has helped breach the barrenness of biological ignorance of the disease to reveal its nature; a patient who has been confronted with the tough realities of the illness and has been cured; and parents who have been given the worst possible news that their child is diagnosed with leukemia and who have endured the prolonged treatment, hope, and despair or relief that follows. These individuals recount their personal experiences, challenges, and interactions with the disease in ways that complement and contrast with each other. Thus, not only does the book contain extraordinary stories involving the very best of biomedical research and clinical advances, but it also embodies very human tales of resilience, optimism and courage. Review One of the great strengths of this book is Horlick's inspirational contribution: it is a fiercely honest, powerful, illuminating, intensely moving narrative of Georgie's courageous but unsuccessful battle against malignant and unrelenting white blood cells ... Many chapters inject hope and help into what most people view as a subject of unrelenting starkness ... Artist Susan Macfarlane has provided a series of evocative pictures that poignantly convey an extraordinarily profound and sympathetic view of undergoing leukaemia treatment ... I would recommend this book, because it provides information relevant to all those seeking to help children with leukaemia... --Times Higher Education
