"Since then, Dr. Rosenberg has made headlines around the world for his pioneering treatments that have saved many lives. With a cautious optimism, he tells of the potential of these treatments and of his most recent experiments, the first in history in which foreign genes were inserted into humans. Deeply personal, often anecdotal, The Transformed Cell is written with an unusual clarity and vision. Dr. Rosenberg describes his progress with contagious excitement, and compassionately relates the stories of those patients selected to undergo treatment. In the style of The Double Helix, this is a gripping medical mystery as well as a rare view of the trials - and triumphs - of scientific research."

Dr. Rosenberg's quest began in 1968, when he encountered a patient whose cancer had mysteriously disappeared. Could the body itself, he wondered, have mounted a massive immune response to the cancer? From that point on, Dr. Rosenberg set out to see if immunotherapy, and later gene therapy, could succeed where surgery, chemotherapy, and."@en
