It’s an exceptional good science book – Cancer, The evolutionary legacy – by Mel Greaves. Having written last year a grant application about resequencing of lung specimens (and more recently a correspondence letter about the lung cancer genome that updates our earlier 31 events to 22,910) I am quite interested in the “minimal cancer genome”, e.g. the driving forces that leads to the final uncontrolled expansion of cancer cells.

Cancer cannot be cured and will never be cured; but the world wants to be fooled
