Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary Nuestra comprensión del cáncer está pasando lentamente por una revolución, lo que permite el desarrollo de tratamientos más efectivos. Por primera vez en la historia, la tasa de mortalidad por cáncer muestra una disminución constante, pero la 'Guerra contra el cáncer' apenas se ha ganado. Fung explica qué es el cáncer, cómo se manifiesta y por qué es tan difícil de tratar. Él identifica muchos errores de la comunidad médica en la investigación del cáncer y proporciona un nuevo paradigma para tratar el cáncer, con recomendaciones sobre lo que podemos hacer para crear un terreno hostil para esta semilla peligrosa.
Our understanding of cancer is slowly undergoing a revolution, allowing for the development of more effective treatments. For the first time ever, the death rate from cancer is showing a steady decline-- but the 'War on Cancer' has hardly been won. Fung explains what cancer is, how it manifests, and why it is so challenging to treat. He identifies the medical community's many missteps in cancer research, and provides a new paradigm for dealing with cancer, with recommendations for what we can do to create a hostile soil for this dangerous seed.
