Energy Balance and Cancer, Epidemiology and Overview is the first
in a series of monographs to address the multiple facets of the
world wide pandemic of overweight and obesity and its relation to
cancer. This volume, authored by leading experts in their
perspective fields, provides a broad and comprehensive overview of
the problem from the epidemiologic viewpoint with focus on both
general and special populations as well as a description of
potential molecular mechanisms and reviews of the latest studies of
factors impacting the association of energy balance and cancer
including the effects of genetics, caloric restriction, exercise,
behavior and the built environment. The collected chapters and the
authors contributing to this initial volume represent a
transdisciplinary approach to analyze and develop novel approaches
to understand and solve what, up to now, is a globally refractory
problem. The book is written to be understandable and informative
to individuals from all concerned disciplines. It should serve to
orient students, investigators, nutritionists, public health
officials, community planners, clinicians and policy makers to the
extent of the problem, its multiple dimensions and potential
approaches for research and corrective interventions.
