Achieving the long-sought cure for cancer seems like a task of mythical proportions, but in Taming Cancer, Dr. Drew N. Kelner, a Duke-trained biochemist with 37 years of experience developing cutting-edge cancer therapies, enthusiastically injects some welcome optimism into the discussion of the future of cancer medicine. A two-century-long journey of scientific discovery, this book tells the epic origin story of immunotherapy, describing how seemingly magical medicines—“living drugs” comprised of antibodies, engineered viruses, and genetically modified immune cells—are already increasing the quality of life for patients and their families. Taming Cancer is a fascinating and highly encouraging look at the science behind this insidious disease, a message of hope to cancer sufferers everywhere, and an insightful read for anyone who has been touched by “The Emperor of All Maladies.” $2.99 on Kindle.
