This book examines the woman behind the cells, Henrietta Lacks, an African American woman from 1950s Baltimore, and her family. Intimate interviews with Henrietta\u2019s descendants as well as prominent scientists involved in both the extraction and cultivation of HeLa cells produce a multi-layered story of ethics, racial issues, and medical research politics. This work is significant for highlighting the human side of medical research and examining questions of both the legal and spiritual side of individual ownership of one\u2019s cells.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta.jpg\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1023\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta2-300x171.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta2-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta2-624x355.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta2.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 275px) 100vw, 275px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta3-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"205\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta3-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta3-624x477.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blogs.pugetsound.edu\/125books\/files\/2012\/08\/web_Henrietta3.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2010: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks Author: Rebecca Skloot Find it in Collins Library!
