This is a VERY interesting book and has been the choice of a lot of book clubs. My daughter just finished it and could not put it down. It is called "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" by Rebecca Skloot.

Here is a little about the book.
Doctors took her cells without asking. Those cells never died. They launched a medical revolution and a multimillion-dollar industry. More than 25 years later, her children found out. Their lives would never be the same
This is excellent.
