The answer to this question, “What is cancer?”provides the scientific basis for cancer control. With all of the recent advances in molecular biology which have increased our understanding of the genetic basis of cancer with the description of oncogenes (cancer genes) and the suppressor genes which regulate their expression, the biologic basis of cancer has received most of the attention. But the nature of cancer also has an equally important social aspect which is essential for cancer control.
