Cancer in time and space - Palaeopathological perspective

Cancer is an abnormal growth of cells which tend to proliferate in an uncontrolled way and, in some cases, to metastasise (spread). Although a lot has been discussed about cancer in many ancient texts in different languages, this book is unique in the sense that it attempts to compile all available original texts in one place provided with relevant original references. This book is beneficial for anthropologists, sociologists, medical scientists, palaeopathologists, oncologists, epidemiologists, AYUSH systems of medicine and other allied sciences.
