The Emperor of All Maladies by Siddhartha Mukherjee won the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction and the 2011 Guardian First Book Award. The book is a comprehensive history of cancer, tracing its origins, its evolving understanding as a disease of cellular overgrowth, and the history of diagnostic and treatment efforts from ancient times to the modern era. Mukherjee blends scientific history with personal stories of patients to provide a narrative that is both academic and deeply human.
