About the book

In nine clear and concise lectures focusing on ten of the most common cancers, this book explains the basics of cancer: what it is, what it does, and what is being done to try to cure it. Using his trademark style of every-day example, metaphor, anecdote and humor, Dr. Sompayrac conveys - step-by-step - the essentials of what we know about human malignancies, what conditions and events are necessary for tumors to form and grow, and what has been learned about stopping that process.
