Tamoxifen has persisted as a widely accepted and administered drug
for almost 25 years. Following the many scientific papers and books
on the subject, it has remained a very intriguing substance. This,
perhaps, is the reason for another monograph on Tamoxifen. It is
regrettably true that overviews, even when up to date after
exhaustive research - the shibboleth of our cultures -, rapidly
lose relevance with the passage of time. Scientists can sometimes
be pictured as deep sea divers, who plunge into the unknown in
search of a hitherto unknown world. Their descent is exciting, but
eventually they must come up for air and integrate their
experiences with others who also had to resurface. This book
intends to collect and, where possible, to collate recent, but
sometimes seemingly unrelated information. To quote Stephane
Mallarme: "Everything in the world exists to end up in a book."
Even if this is a tad cynical, it might not be far from the truth.
If a little knowledge is a dangerous commodity, one can also add -
tongue in cheek - that a vast amount of knowledge can be truly
hazardous. It is likely that what might seem as entangled data is
confusing, especially for those satisfied with the comfortable
interpretation of Tamoxifen as an antiestrogen which has long been
found insufficient. The complexity of its mechanisms and effects
defies simple explanations and may even seem capricious, but only
because of our ignorance.
