Except for viral-based cancers, overall cancers are diseases that may be preventable. This book looks at the many levels of determined, probable, and possible causation for several common cancers. These causes include realities found in culture, anthropology, sociology, politics, the environment, agriculture and food, beliefs, and the modern lifestyle. These realities are filtered through the perennial science of Chinese medicine - an ecological system of knowing and understanding the human body as it relates to the world around us.The book covers lung 606 $aMedicine, Chinese 606 $aPollution$xHealth aspects 606 $aTumors$xEtiology 606 $aTumors$xTreatment 606 $aCancer$xTreatment 615 0$aMedicine, Chinese. 615 0$aPollution$xHealth aspects. 615 0$aTumors$xEtiology. 615 0$aTumors$xTreatment. 615 0$aCancer$xTreatment. 676 $a616.994071 700 $aLahans$b Tai$01684757 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808545203321 996 $aThe geology of the modern cancer epidemic$94056400 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02183oam 2200289z- 450 001 9910160685003321 005 20230913112557.0 010 $a1-62210-107-3 035 $a(CKB)3710000001026320 035 $a(BIP)052217569 035 $a(Exl-AI)993710000001026320 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001026320 100 $a20210505c2014uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 10$aBody Language 210 $cLiquid Silver Books 215 $a1 online resource (63 p.) 330 8 $aSometimes you just have to go home.
