Author writes in his preface, "For many years I have been a priveleged and active member of a profession dedicated to the alleviation of human suffering, to the preservation of life and to the combat of disease. None can deny, ... that cancer is the arch-enemy in all the diseased states to which human flesh is heir. It is mainly and ultimately the problem of this disease, a problem I may have tackled in what may seem to be strange and devious ways, that this book is all about."
