"P53 with a human touch"

Review well describes the book by Sue Armstrong "P53, the gene that cracked the cancer code"

A must read for students, researchers, and especially teachers of molecular biology, cancer biology, cell biology, medicine, at any and all levels. It was fantastic to see the human side of some of the names I was familiar with only on text books, Pubmed, IARC, WHO etc. Excellent and well deserving treatment to the master guardian! Well done author..
