Live forever? : a curious scientist's guide to wellness, ageing and death / by Tregoning, John S.,author.; Uruchurtu, Ash,illustrator.;
Includes glossary, bibliographic references (pages 391-410), and index.With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it's a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don't betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions. Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, 'Live Forever?' offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them - and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.

Cooper.Can be used as a companion book to The American Cancer Society's Oncology in Practice: Clinical Management.Developed by the American Cancer Society, this new textbook covers: descriptive epidemiology; fundamentals of cancer epidemiology; socioeconomic inequalities in cancer incidence and mortality; counseling and testing for inherited predisposition to cancer; microbial, environmental, and occupational carcinogens; screening and early detection; principles and drivers of cancer; imaging in oncology; the pathologic evaluation of neoplastic diseases; radiotherapy; cytotoxic chemotherapy; hormonal therapy; hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; diet, physical activity, and weight control for patients and survivors; clinical trials; geriatric oncology; supportive care; sexuality and fertility; psychiatric issues in cancer patients; survivorship care; and more.Reflects day-to-day decision-making and clinical practice based on the expertise of medical, radiation, and surgical oncologists, radiologists and pathologists, primary care clinicians, epidemiologists, cancer biologists, and other clinical specialists.The American Cancer Society's Principles of Oncology: Prevention to Survivorship is a modern textbook covering a range of topics that are key to a multidisciplinary approach to cancer and critical to cancer control. It covers the causes of cancer, prevention and early detection, cancer biology, diagnosis, and staging. A final section discusses symptom management, palliative care, complications, survivorship, and surrounding issues such as fertility and sexuality after cancer, and psychiatric complications. Designed for a wide range of learners and practitioners, this resource places special emphasis on cancer prevention, screening, and follow-up, which are central to the American Cancer Society's worldwide mission on cancer control.Written in an easy-to-understand style by a prestigious list of U.S. and European clinical experts, and edited by a multidisciplinary team of leaders in all aspects of cancer-related healthcare.
