ABSTRACT

While cancer is not the leading cause of death with aging, it is the most feared, with the possible exception of dementia, which is a living death (Witte and Allen 2000). The public yearns for a cure for cancer. However, cancer is not a single disease, and many different solutions to its many different forms are needed. Cancer sometimes seems like a random killer of innocent people, but there are established risk factors, such as smoking, diet, and lifestyle.
