This landmark book is a comprehensive, vividly written and scientifically grounded history of the relationship between humanity and cancer, against which the personal stories of the war against the "king of all diseases" unfold. Guiding the reader through the changing perceptions of the disease in different eras, treatment options, milestones of knowledge of its mechanisms and conflicts of interest around it, the author reveals the reasons for the limited victories over it and outlines realistic contours of coexistence with it in the future. The eternal dreams of a magic pill for cancer are confronted by an enemy so insidious because it resembles in its biological perfection the distorted reflections of ourselves.
