Beskrivelse af Making Sense of Cancer
Transforming the Understanding of Cancer
According to the critiques, this book will fundamentally change how you see cancer-and perhaps even life itself. Dr. Jarle Breivik (MD, PhD, EdD) is internationally recognized for his evolutionary approach to cancer. His thought-provoking articles in the New York Times, Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, and EMBO Reports have stimulated profound debates about cancer research, health policies, and science communication. His ideas on cancer have been featured in Wired Magazine, Science Daily, and twice in Scientific American. The arguments are always firmly rooted in science, presented in clear language, and accessible to all.
Cancer is often associated with death. But it is also very much about life. It is about the basic principles of biology, the intricate dynamics of living organisms, body and soul, tears and love, culture, politics, and money. Making Sense of Cancer takes you on a journey that explores cancer in the light of evolution-but not just in the traditional sense. Evolution occurs within our bodies, in our brains, and in society, and Dr. Breivik presents an integrated understanding that draws lines from molecular genetics to existential questions about longevity and the future of our civilization.
We are in the midst of an extraordinary technological revolution. The merger of biotechnology and artificial intelligence poses an existential challenge, and the solution to cancer may not be the cure most people envision. Can we eliminate the disease and still be human?
