The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot. I know this book has been in primt for about 10 years, and have meant to read it before now. Anyway, I am finding it to be very interesting. I am about 1/4 of the way through, and can't put it down. I also know a movie version was made, but have not pursued looking into it, yet.
Love what you do, and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. -Ray Bradbury

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. -Robert A. Heinlein

A very good book and movie. Search "Henrietta" on BookTalk and you'll find it has been recommended here many times in the last 9 years.
