Don't Waste Your Cancer
Author: John Piper
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433523337
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 18
Book Description
How are we as Christians called to respond when cancer invades our lives, whether our own bodies or those of our friends and family? On the eve of his own cancer surgery, John Piper writes about cancer as an opportunity to glorify God. With pastoral sensitivity, compassion, and strength, Piper gently but firmly acknowledges that we can indeed waste our cancer when we don't see how it is God's good plan for us and a hope-filled path for making much of Jesus. Don't Waste Your Cancer is for anyone touched by a life-threatening illness. It first appeared as an appendix in Suffering and the Sovereignty of God. Repackaged and republished, it will serve as a hope-giving resource for healthcare workers, pastors, counselors, and others caring for those with cancer and other serious illnesses. The booklets are also available in packs of ten.

Cancer as a Metabolic Disease
Author: Thomas Seyfried
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118310306
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 482
Book Description
The book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited. This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. Support for this position is derived from critical assessment of current cancer theories. Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate.

Cutaneous Oncology and Skin Cancer Genomics
Author: Bahar Dasgeb
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 283255332X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
This Research Topic of Frontiers in Medicine is focused on the new diagnostic and therapeutic protocols in the field of skin (solid tumors and lymphoma) and soft tissue oncology with an emphasis on challenging, complex, and advanced clinical scenarios as follows; • patients presenting with numerous and or recurring skin and soft tissue malignancies. • immune deficiencies, including but not limited to organ transplant patients. • management of patients with adverse events due to underlying oncological treatments such as life-saving clinical trials or treatment protocols. • describing the cutaneous adverse events of emerging oncological treatment not yet reported in the literature. • germ-line or tumor mutations that are believed to play a role in the severity or complexity of the phenotype of the skin and soft tissue tumors • the role of oncoviruses in the development of cutaneous malignancies and using such understating and etiology towards immunization, therapeutic and preventive measures. This Research Topic in Frontiers in Medicine will also be a platform to present the new and emerging technologies applied to cutaneous and soft tissue oncology, such as: • radiation therapy • imaging technologies, • supervised or non-supervised computed algorithms and AI applied to the skin and soft tissue. • bio-photonics and optical technology applied to the skin and soft tissue Additionally, innovative molecular histopathology for diagnostic, risk stratifying, or therapeutic measures in the field of dermatopathology is within the scope of this Research Topic. Moreover, surgical approaches or a combination of surgical and non-surgical protocols with emphasis on the outcome, or the data analysis of surgical outcome that has is more comprehensive and preferably prospective compare to existing information in the literature. Investigator-initiated clinical trials and commentaries with a point of view towards prevention, early detection, or better risk stratification of patients at higher risk for skin malignancies compare to the general population are also of interest for this Research Topic on cutaneous oncology and skin cancer genomics. It is with deepest sorrow that we share with you the passing of our co-editor Professor Jouni Uitto, to whom we dedicate this collection.

Cancer

Publisher:
ISBN: 9780192628343
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
Every day, 1500 Americans die of cancer, and yet for most of us this deadly disease remains mysterious. Why is it so common? Why are there so many different causes? Why does treatment so often fail? What, ultimately, is cancer? In this fascinating new book, a leading cancer researcher offers general readers clear and convincing answers to these and many other questions. Mel Greaves places cancer in its evolutionary context, arguing that we can best answer the big questions about cancer by looking through a Darwinian lens. Drawing on both ancient and more modern evolutionary legacies, he shows how human development has changed the rules of evolutionary games, trapping us in a nature-nurture mismatch. Compelling examples, from the King of Naples intestinal tumor in the 15th century, through the epidemic of scrotal skin cancer in 18th-century chimney sweeps, to the current surge of cases of prostate cancer illustrate his thesis. He also shows why the old paradigms of infectious diseases or genetic disorders have proved fruitless when trying to explain this complex and elusive disease. And finally, he looks at the implications for research, prevention, and treatment of cancer that an evolutionary perspective provides. Drawing on the most recent research, this is the first book to put cancer in its evolutionary framework. At a time when Darwinian perspectives on everything from language acquisition to economics are providing new breakthroughs in understanding, medicine seems to have much to gain from the insights provided by evolutionary biology. Written in an exceptionally lucid and entertaining style, this book will be of broad interest to all those who wish to know more about this dread disease.
