The Rebel Cell: Cancer, Evolution, and the New Science of Life / Kat Arney; Translated from English. — Moscow: Alpina Non-fiction, 2022. — 426 pages. ISBN 978-5-00139-584-3 Cancer occurs in almost all animal species and has affected humans since our species began walking the Earth. In "The Rebel Cell," Kat Arney reveals the secrets of our most formidable enemy among diseases. Above all, she shows that it is not so much an external invader as a kind of "double agent": cancer is deeply woven into the fundamental processes of life itself. New scientific data indicate that this disease is the result of the same evolutionary changes that allowed humanity to thrive. Evolution has taught us how to outwit our environment; but it also helps cancer do the same — and in its case, unfortunately, the "environment" is us. Explaining why our views on cancer are largely mistaken, Arney, a geneticist and distinguished science popularizer, introduces readers with unique wit and clear logic to the latest research on rogue cells rebelling against the tightly organized biological "community" that is the body, and striving straight into anarchy.
