This is really helpful, thank you. I was also wondering, How does paclitaxel affect the normal cells?

I work with this drug somewhat and can give a basic answer. It affects normal cells in the same way; (nearly) all cells undergo regular cell division, so this mitotic arrest -> cell death mechanism occurs in your normal cells as well, hence the toxicity of the drug. But due to the very high cell division of cancer cells relative to normal cells, the cancer cells are presumed to undergo a far greater amount of mitoses due to their higher proportion, and often also have aberrant repair pathways. These lead to the drug being disproportionally more effective in cancer cells relative to the normal cells. There is much more nuance to this mechanism, but that is the basic principle.
