“A science journalist whose work frequently appears in the New York Times, Johnson began investigating cancer after his wife’s diagnosis with the disease. Here he shows that an entirely new understanding of cancer is evolving as scientists downplay dietary and environmental factors while studying the petrified tumors still attached to the crumbly bones of dinosaurs and early humans. Elegant writing from the author of The Ten Most Beautiful Experiments.” — Barbara Hoffert in Library Journal
“The New York Times’ science expert has written an obsessively researched jeremiad that examines both the forensics and the psychological repercussions of a cancer diagnosis. Johnson has several other titles to his name, but none are as personal or as heated as this one, which he started working on soon after his wife was diagnosed.” — Emily Landau in Reader’s Digest Canada
