«Egoístas, inmortales y viajeras» is Carlos López-Otín's essay on cancer, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback (304 pages, in Spanish).
The book explains that cancer is not a single disease but more than two hundred of genetic origin: a normal cell becomes selfish, immortal and migratory when forming metastases. López-Otín reviews advances in molecular biology and immunotherapy, prevention through diet and wellbeing, and considers what cancer will look like in the future.
Published on 10 November 2021, it closes Carlos López-Otín's «Trilogía de la vida», begun with «La vida en cuatro letras» and «El sueño del tiempo», and published in the Contextos collection.
A work of interest for students and health science professionals and for readers of popular science on oncology and genetics.
