    Just finished "The Radium Girls" and it's pretty wild a story about how these Radium Dial Painitng Women working at Radium plants all basically died terrible deaths cause from radiation posioning. It almost read like a Horror Book.

    I read half of the Henrietta Lacks book a decade ago and want to finish it..

    But I am wondering if there are other undertold tales that are similiar?
