Book Description Over the last three decades, knowledge on the molecular biology of human cancers has vastly expanded A host of genes and proteins involved in cancer development and progression have been defined and many mechanisms at the molecular, cellular and even tissue level have been, at least partly, elucidated Insights have also been овьри gained into the molecular mechanisms underlying carcinogenesis by chemical, physical, and biological agents and into inherited susceptibility to cancer Accordingly, Part I of the book presents many of the molecules and mechanisms generally important in human cancers Following an overview on the cancer problem, individual chapters deal with cancer genetics and epigenetics, DNA damage and repair, oncogenes, tumor suppressors, regulatory pathways in cancer, apoptosis, cellular senescence, tumor invasion, and metastasis A consensus is emerging that while these common mechanisms and molecules are all relevant to human cancers, in each cancer type (oreven subtype) a selection of them are extremely important For selected cancers, the route from genetic and epigenetic changes to their biological and clinical behavior can already be traced Part II of the book presents a broad, but exemplary selection of cancers that serve as paradigms to illustrate this point In fact, cancer research has now reached a critical stage, in which the accumulated knowledge on molecular mechanisms is gradually translated into improved prevention, diagnosis, and treatment The state, pitfalls, and potential of these efforts are summarized in Part III More than ever, cancer research is now an interdisciplinary effort which requires a basic knowledge of commonly used terms, facts, issues, and concepts The aim of this book is to provide advanced students and practitioners of different disciplines with this basis, bridging the gap between standard textbooks of molecular biology, pathology, and oncology on the one hand and the specialized cancer literature on theother.  2005 г ISBN 1402031858.

Book DescriptionGetting tested to detect cancer early is one of the best ways to stay healthy--or is it? In this lively, carefully researched book, a nationally recognized expert on early cancer detection challenges one of medicine's most widely acceptedbeliefs: that the best defense against cancer is to always try to catch it early Read this овьта book and you will think twice about common cancer screening tests such as total body scans, mammograms, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests Combining patient stories and solid data on common cancers, Dr H Gilbert Welch makes the case that testing healthy people for cancer is really a double-edged sword: while these tests may help, they often have surprisingly little effect and are sometimes even harmful Bringing together a body of little-known medical research in an engaging and accessible style, he discusses in detail the pitfalls of screening tests, showing how they can miss some cancers, how they can lead to invasive, unnecessary treatments, and how they can distract doctors from other important issues Welch's conclusions are powerful, counterintuitive, and disturbing: the early detection of cancer does not always save lives, it can be hard to know who really has early cancer, and there are some cancers better left undiscovered Should I Be Tested for Cancer? is the only book to clearly and simply lay out the pros and cons of cancer testing for the general public It is indispensable reading for the millions of Americans who repeatedly face screening tests and who want to make better-informed decisions about their own health care.  2004 г 234 стр ISBN 0520239768.

Book DescriptionAward-winning author, Samuel S Epstein, M D , whose 1978 book The Politics of Cancer shook the political establishment by showing how the federal government had been corrupted by industrial polluters, has written a book that is sure to be of equal consequence Cancer-Gate: How to Win the Losing Cancer War is a groundbreaking new овьой book It warns that, contrary to three decades of promises, we are losing the winnable war against cancer, and that the hand-in-glove generals of the federal National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the private "nonprofit" American Cancer Society (ACS) have betrayed us These institutions, Epstein alleges, have spent tens of billions of taxpayer and charity dollars primarily targeting silver-bullet cures, strategies that have largely failed, while virtually ignoring strategies for preventing cancer in the first place As a result, cancer rates have escalated to epidemic proportions, now striking nearly one in every two men, and more than one in every three women Thistranslates into approximately 50 percent more cancer in men, and 20 percent more cancer in women over the course of just one generation According to Epstein, these failed strategies are largely due to institutional malaise and outdated mindsets fixatedon treatment, to the virtual exclusion of prevention, other than quitting smoking But, Epstein says, there is much more In particular, the book shows how the NCI and ACS are corroded with major institutional and personal conflicts of interest with cancer drug companies ("Big Pharma") As candidly admitted by a recent NCI director, the NCI has become a "government pharmaceutical company " For the ACS, these conflicts extend to environmental polluters in the chemical industry, and connivance in white collar crime Not surprisingly, The Chronicle of Philanthropy has charged that "the ACS is more interested in accumulating wealth than saving lives " These close ties to industry have transformed the NCI and ACS into cheerleaders for special interests ratherthan stewards of the public interest Astoundingly, and for the first time, Epstein chronicles how the NCI and ACS are sitting on mountains of information about avoidable environmental causes of cancer rather than making this available to the public in any systematic and understandable way This silence has even extended to frank suppression of such information, denial of the public's right to know, and violation of human rights Following a detailed indictment of these public betrayals, Epstein explainshow we can "take back" the war against cancer with a wide range of strategies These include "right-to-know" laws, ensuring public dissemination of critical information on environmental carcinogens and avoidable causes of cancer, and legislative reforms and oversight to ensure that the NCI protects the public rather than special interests This searing exposé of the NCI and ACS, and the proposed reforms of public policy have been endorsed by over a hundred leading independent experts in cancer prevention and public health, as well as by activist citizen groups The Losing War * Since President Nixon launched the 1971 cancer war, cancer incidence rates (adjusted for the aging population) have escalated to epidemic proportions * Contrary to NCI and ACS claims, the escalating incidence of cancer cannot be explained away by smoking, but is due to avoidable exposures to a multiplicity of environmental carcinogens And, while lung cancer rates have declined steadily, rates for a wide range of cancers unrelated to smoking have increased sharply * These alarming statistics do not reflect a lack of resources Since 1971, NCI's budget has increased 30-fold, from $150 million to $4 6 billion; annual revenues of ACS have now reached $800 million Paradoxically, it seems that the more money we spend on cancer, the more cancer we get * Meanwhile, and in spite of the NCI/ACS's overwhelming expenditures on an ongoing se.  2005 г 377 стр ISBN 0895033542.

Stories of Hope From Survivors and Caregivers is a collection of short vignettes and accounts from a number овьпх of cancer survivors and caregivers who have dealt with a wide variety of cancers Through the telling of their stories, they reveal the psychological and emotional challenges they faced and overcame, challenges that are common to others dealing with the disease (for example, dealing with the fear of a recurrence and experiencing anxiety about starting chemotherapy) The book makes no attempt to advise readers to deal with their challenges in the same way as the survivors in the book Instead, it allows readers to draw their own conclusions and apply them to their personal situations, ultimately enabling them to gain insight into their own struggles and to emerge with hope and confidence as they realize that they, too, can triumph over similar challenges Two of the most important features of the book are its uplifting tone and the ease with which readers will be able to relate to the stories First, thetone is such that, whenever a problem is presented, it is followed by the survivors' and caregivers' solutions to these problems This concentration on what people can do, instead of what they can't, allows the book to deal with hard-hitting topics whilebringing a message of hope to the readers Second, readers can easily relate to the stories of these survivors and caregivers because they are told by ordinary people who have dealt with a wide range of cancers (everything from malignant brain tumors to breast cancer; from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma to leukemia), and who come from different backgrounds (from an impoverished mother living in rural Kansas to a successful businessman in New York City) and age groups (ranging from thirteen to sixty-five years old) In addition, the layout of the book makes it especially easy to read Each chapter in the book contains short vignettes on a central theme For example, there are chapters that deal with the diagnosis, first steps (the time before starting treatment), treatment, finding support, specific caregiver issues, and an inspirational "in retrospect" section where the survivors and caregivers look back on their experiences and offer a final message of support This format effectively holds the interest of readers and easily accommodates any need to access information on a particular topic Cancer How Will I Get Through This? is certain to be both a benefit and an inspiration to cancer patients and their loved ones.  2005 г 160 стр ISBN 0976057689.

"Внимание, "Тигры"!" - эти слова, произносимые на разных языках солдатами армий антигитлеровской коалиции, заставляли учащенно биться сердца если не от страха, то овьре от ощущения смертельной опасности В эти минуты в сознании солдат возникал отнюдь не облик свирепой полосатой кошки, а образ неуязвимой стальной громадины, изрыгающей огонь и смерть Созданный"сумрачным германским гением", этот, без всякого сомнения, самый грозный немецкий танк периода Второй мировой войны представлял собой совершенный образец боевой техники Близкое к оптимальному сочетание огневой мощи, бронезащиты и маневренности позволяло "Тигру" в течение двух с половиной лет доминировать на поле боя Почему это произошло? Почему эти танки, выпущенные в мизерных, по меркам Второй мировой войны, количествах, заставили заплатить за свое уничтожение столь дорогую цену? Почему до сих пор "Тигр" продолжает занимать верхние строчки в рейтинге лучших танков XX века? Только ли дело в первоклассной технике или просто в умении воевать? Хотя бы частично ответить на эти вопросы поможет эта книга Автор Михаил Барятинский.  Серия: Танки в бою.
