Seller's Description:
Very good in very good dust jacket. DJ has slight wear and soiling, with small edge wear and sticker residue. xiv, 384 p. Illustrations. index. Foreword by C. Everett Koop. This controversial story details the work of Dr. Judah Folkman, a pioneer in the cancer research field. Through interviews, research, and laboratory records, a science journalist traces Folkman's success with treating cancer in mice--reported in The New York Times in a 1998 article heavily criticized for prematurely claiming a cure. Emphasizing the two subsequent years of successful clinical trials in humans, this book argues for a renewed discussion of Folkman's work as a potential cure for cancer.
