...from, and you can see the road not taken. It's not that the sources for Moore's sculptural forms were always gentle and benign. Anything but. They could often be traced back to his service in World War I, to a world of dismembered limbs, warrior helmets and bone fragments. But at heart he was a conciliator.

...multistep therapy requires doctors to extract bone-marrow stem cells from breast-cancer patients prior to surgery. After the tumor-removal operation, patients are exposed to brutal doses of chemotherapy, then re-infused with their stem cells, which restore immune cells destroyed by the chemotherapy.
