The Cancer Detectives

The Cancer Detectives tells the untold story of the first-ever war on cancer and the coalition of people who fought tirelessly to save women from cervical cancer: a Greek immigrant, Dr. George Papanicolau; his intrepid wife, Mary; Japanese-born artist, Hashime Murayama; Dr. Helen Dickens, an African American OBGYN in Philadelphia and an entirely new class of female scientists.
