Good, but harrowing. That's where my husband died.

[Meredith Jaffe]

I revisited this book thirty years after I first read it. An intelligent, engaging expose about the pioneering days of bone marrow transplantation, this book is well-written as it follows the life and death drama on a specialized medical research unit.

A page turner - couldn't put it down and regretted turning the last page - thank you Eric!
