Winner 2023 PROSE Award for Excellence in Biological and Life Sciences
Winner of the 2023 PROSE Award for Excellence in Biological and Life Sciences! Writing so vivid, lucid, and suspenseful that complex science becomes thrilling, The Song of the Cell tells the story of how scientists discovered cells, began to understand them, and are now using that knowledge to create new humans. Told in 6 parts, and laced with Mukherjee’s own experience as a researcher, a doctor, and a prolific reader, this book is a masterpiece on what it means to be human.
