Tackling Cancer

By: Rosen Editors

In these articles leading scientists and researchers explain recent advances in cancer research. Topics include how cells become malignant; how viruses, dendritic cells, and light-sensitive pigments are working as anti-cancer agents; and how researchers might one day be able to use and manipulate angiogenesis to treat the disease. Other reports address alternative medicine, and hormone-replacement therapy. An interview with Judah Folkman, a renowned medical researcher, and a profile of virologist Peter Duesberg round out the compilation.
