The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

Hi I'm Cristina and i was a part of the SEED program this summer and i thought this book was great. I think this book is must read for all those people who like to calculate and imagine what this world might be like in the future. However, this book is definitely not for the faint hearted or easily freaked. This book does have a lot of very intense scenes and it shows the future in a perspective that many of us fear may come true. I think that this book also makes us realize that if we don't stop polluting and harming our environment we might end up in a future similar to Lauren's. However i believe that as long as we get more people aware of the problem we can all do something before its to late. I would like to end by saying that if there were more people like lauren, who is super aware of what's going on in her world, then people would have a better understanding of how the earth is being affected by our carelessness and try to fix things for the future generations to come.
