Fuck Cancer, But Also Read About It

In case you missed it during the attack on Russian free speech, you may want to check out my trip to England and Scotland in Facebook statuses.

You should also check out my interview with Anisha Nagarajan of Outsourced. She gave a great e-mail interview, and maybe you will be convinced to give Outsourced a chance. It's really funny, I promise!

I'll read it! It sounds great.

I look forward to reading your review!

Emperor of All Maladies sounds very interesting! Your comparison with The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks makes me add it to me book list since I enjoyed that book last year.

You couldn't print "cancer" or "breast," so good luck trying to write something about breast cancer.

Five minutes into the pilot, I got queasy and had to turn it off.
Like most people. But it got better, and then it got much better. It's progressed from meh to okay to decent to genuinely good. There are only a few episodes left in the season, though.

Okay I will!

I've always enjoyed the non-fiction books you recommend, so I'll have a look for this one. Thanks!

I feel that maybe I should branch out into non-science-y non-fiction books, but...these are the ones that interest me!
