About
"Only a broad expanse of expertise--including that of scientists and sociologists, patients and physicians, researchers and regulators--can battle and subdue this disparate family of diseases. Here, we listen in as experts converse about the latest medical advances poised to someday render cancer a manageable and predictable condition. Equally important are the lessons that this new "war" can teach us about innovation in general, and its value to society"--Publisher's description.
