β¦ Synopsis
with regards to the 'death' side of the growth equation, on which it is regrettably weak. Indeed, death is briefly mentioned on about 10 occasions, never dealt with properly as (to use the authors' own words) 'a different process from growth'; furthermore, virtually no mechanistic insight is proffered. If we truly do have to go 'back to the drawing board', I would prefer to start with the help of a book which presented a much better balanced perspective. And next I remained unpersuaded by the authors that there is indeed a lack of collective progress in our understanding the control of cell proliferation and cancer, a view which belittles some of the great strides forward made from the molecular biology of cell cycle regulation, to which I have already alluded.
