Monumental work - one that requires stamina and endurance to fully absorb and appreciate, and so so rewarding; wealth of information about the history, recent past and the new frontiers that we can only hope can be explored for the benefit and wellness of all humans, without the sacrifice of empathy and our core humanity

Beautiful written; wonderful explanations and stories to help reinforce the message he’s trying to convey. It was a great read but still doesn’t compare to Emperor of all Maladies.
