توجه داشته باشید کتاب درک سرطان: مکانیسم های مولکولی، زیست شناسی، آسیب شناسی و پیامدهای بالینی نئوپلازی بدخیم نسخه زبان اصلی می باشد و کتاب ترجمه شده به فارسی نمی باشد. وبسایت اینترنشنال لایبرری ارائه دهنده کتاب های زبان اصلی می باشد و هیچ گونه کتاب ترجمه شده یا نوشته شده به فارسی را ارائه نمی دهد.
این کتاب توصیفی منحصر به فرد و گسترده از پدیده سرطان و اثرات پاتولوژیک آن در گونه های مختلف از جمله انسان، حیوانات اهلی و وحشی، بی مهرگان و گیاهان ارائه می دهد. دامنه وسیع اطلاعات ارائه شده برای ایجاد بینش های جدید رادیکال در مورد خودتنظیمی بیولوژیکی و توضیح ارتباط آنها با اختلال آن توسط رشد سرطانی و گسترش در بدن انسان استفاده می شود. مکانیسم های اثر عوامل سرطان زا، شروع، پیشرفت، متاستاز، بیان نامناسب ژن، خواب، تأخیر، پسرفت، و دلایل حساسیت و/یا مقاومت به سرطان همگی در نظر گرفته می شوند. همچنین معیارهایی برای تشخیص پاتولوژیک، پیشرفت در درمان، پیامدهای سلامت عمومی، و مشکلات در تشخیص و تفسیر نتایج تجربی مورد بحث قرار گرفته است. این کتاب مکانیسم های عملیاتی سرطان را در سطوح کل فردی، اندام، بافت، سلول، مولکولی و حتی مقیاس های ساختاری و فیزیولوژیکی اتمی (کوانتومی) توصیف می کند. شواهدی از همه این سطوح سازمان جمع آوری شده است تا نشان دهد سرطان یک اختلال در حال تغییر پویا است و این یک خطر ذاتی و همیشگی ترکیب چند سلولی است. این دیدگاههای بیولوژیکی و بالینی جدیدی را در مورد نئوپلازی بدخیم ارائه میکند. بینش بیولوژیکی این است که پیامد پیشرفت نادرست ارتباط در یک جامعه سلولی است. دیدگاه بالینی در استدلال واقع بینانه اما خوش بینانه است که اگرچه سرطان هرگز نمی تواند به طور کامل از زندگی انسان ریشه کن شود، زیرا این یک اختلال در ساختار زیستی ذاتی ما است، می توان آن را کنترل و بهبود بخشید و حتی در نسبتی از افراد درمان کرد. متن به وفور با بیش از 300 تصویر ماکروسکوپی و میکروسکوپی نشان داده شده است. کنجکاوی و علاقه متخصصان و همچنین مبتدیان را در بسیاری از رشته های علمی برانگیخته و مراجع فراوانی به ادبیات پزشکی و علمی ارائه می دهد که نتیجه گیری های آن را پشتیبانی می کند. خوانندگان رشته های مختلفی مانند پزشکی، آسیب شناسی، علوم دامپزشکی، زیست شناسی سلولی، زیست شناسی مولکولی، زیست شناسی رشدی و اپیدمیولوژی اطلاعاتی را که کتاب حاوی مطالب قابل تامل، جالب و مفید است خواهند یافت. علاوه بر این، متخصصان بهداشت حرفه ای و محیط زیست و کارشناسان حقوقی با تمرکز بر قرار گرفتن در معرض مواد سرطان زا و آلودگی، مطالب را ارزشمند و آموزنده خواهند یافت.
This book provides a unique, wide-ranging description of the phenomenon of cancer and its pathological effects in diverse species including humans, domesticated and wild animals, invertebrates, and plants. The broad scope of information presented is used to construct radical new insights into biological self-regulation and explain their relevance to its disruption by cancerous growth and spread within the human body. Mechanisms of action of carcinogenic agents, initiation, progression, metastasis, inappropriate gene expression, dormancy, latency, regression, and reasons for susceptibility and/or resistance to cancer are all considered. Also discussed are criteria for pathological diagnosis, advances in treatment, implications for public health, and pitfalls in diagnosis and interpretation of experimental results. The book describes operational mechanisms of cancer at the levels of whole individual, organ, tissue, cell, molecular, and even atomic (quantum) scales of structural and physiological order. Evidence is assembled from all these levels of organization to show that cancer is a dynamically changing disorder and that it is an inherent and perpetual risk of multicellular composition. This provides pragmatic new biological and clinical perspectives on malignant neoplasia. The biological insight is that it is a consequence of progressing miscommunication within a cellular society. The clinical perspective is realistic but optimistic in reasoning that, although cancer can never be completely eradicated from human life, because it is a disorder of our intrinsic biological constitution, it can be controlled and ameliorated and even cured in a proportion of individuals. The text is profusely illustrated with over 300 macroscopic and microscopic pictures. It will stimulate curiosity and interest specialists, as well as beginners, in many scientific disciplines and provides copious references to the medical and scientific literature supporting its conclusions. Readers from fields as diverse as medicine, pathology, veterinary sciences, cell biology, molecular biology, developmental biology, and epidemiology will find the information the book contains thought-provoking, interesting, and useful. Additionally, specialists in occupational and environmental health and legal experts focusing on exposure to carcinogenic materials and pollution will find the contents valuable and informative.
