Description

Understanding cancer requires looking beyond genetics. While only 5-10% of human cancers are hereditary, the role of external factors in disease development is substantial. This book by Springer explores how the environment contributes to malignant transformation and the resulting changes in genetic and signaling networks. Many people associate carcinogens only with specific chemicals, but the environment encompasses much more. This text examines a broad range of influences, including chemical, physical, and biological toxicants, as well as the impact of diet and lifestyle. By examining these various elements, the book provides a deep look at how environmental factors interact with human biology to drive cancer development. This resource is designed for those studying the complex relationship between our surroundings and cellular health. It moves past simple definitions to explain how external agents lead to profound changes in the body's internal networks, offering a comprehensive perspective on the non-hereditary drivers of cancer.
