Why Cancer‪?‬

Cancer is a mysterious killer diseases of the present time and the incidence of cancer is rapidly increasing in the world. This peculiar disease is characterized by abnormal uncontrolled growth of various tissues. The real cause for this abnormal growth is evading detection by scientists in spite of extensive research. Senior biochemists working on cancer are unable to grasp the fundamental cellular process in cancer and are looking for some creative thinking from young generation of scientists. This book is an attempt to expose certain interesting facts about cancer and to evolve a new line of treatment. Growth is a sign of life not a sign of death. Death in cancer is due to an error in the growth process. The unique links between the hallmarks of cancer and reproduction are explored and analyzed in this book. There are circumstantial, clinical, genetic, immunological and evolutionary evidence to prove that cancer is an unsuccessful attempt for asexual reproduction in humans. In fact there are many living organisms capable of both for sexual and asexual reproduction. In some of them one method is functioning while the other method is non functioning. Errors in reproductive process are common. The amoebic (Eukaryotic) heritage of humans is well accepted and perhaps an amoebic reproduction is manifested in humans when regular sexual reproduction is absent, defective or insufficient. Cancer often occurs when humans are old ,impotent and infertile. Cancers of reproductive & sex organs are much more common than cancers of other organs in spite of prophylactic removal of many reproductive organs. The immune systems (the watch dog of body) do not attack cancer because it is a reproductive process. When the watch dog does not bark or bite, it shows that there is no external invader involved. Interestingly cancer is not just a bunch of abnormal cells, but it contains normal blood vessels and normal nerve fibers. Hence it is a failed attempt to form an organ or an embryo. Besides cancer was nicknamed as 'somatic cell pregnancy' because of several similarities between carcinogenesis and embryo genesis.. Conversion of this inefficient and incomplete asexual reproduction process to an efficient process is the ideal solution for human sufferings due to cancer and old age. The book contains several relevant quotes from great men and more than one hundred important references..
