Precis This book is a treatise about the origin of cancers. I would
like to convince readers that the basic tenets of the theory of a
stem-cell origin of cancers also constitute a unified theory of
cancer. Stem-cell origin of normal (and cancer) cells: Vitruvian
version Every truth passes through three stages before it is
recognized. In the first it is ridiculed, in the second, it is
opposed, in the third, it is regarded as self-evident. - Arthur
Schopenhauer v vi Preface Every person has a unique story to tell.
My story is about cancer. Cancer touches the lives of countless
people. Often enough, it leaves indelible tracks. Many lives have
been lost; others are forever changed. For those who confront this
deadly scourge, there is a sense of urgency, if not of desperation.
For those who face im- nent death, life becomes even more precious
and carries a special meaning. As an oncologist, I am touched daily
by cancer. I feel its inception, evolution, and aft- math. It seems
as though we are fighting an incessant war against cancer at the
front line in the trenches. This is my story about cancer. Some
people are terrific storytellers. Others have incredible tales to
tell.
