Great Magazine, Mapping Cancer! Highly Recommended!Views: 518

There is a Special Edition of Scientific American Magazine, entitled “New Answers for Cancer.” This fat issue is dedicated to cancer, and is on display only until September 30th. I could find no online address for the special edition. Its topics include: Living with Cancer, Evolved for Cancer?, Mapping the Cancer Genome, Untangling the Roots of Cancer, Stem Cells: The Real Culprits in Cancer?, A Malignant Flame, The Long Arm of the Immune System, Taming Vessels to Treat Cancer, Tumor-Busting Viruses, New Light on Medicine, and Gaining Ground on Breast Cancer. It also includes Medical Resources for cancer, and much more. All of us need to read it. It costs $5.95. I found mine at Barnes & Noble.
