Book Description
Excerpt from The Conquest of Cancer, a Plan of Campaign: Being an Account of the Principles and Practice Hitherto of the Treatment of Malignant Growths by Specific or Cancrotoxic Ferments Believing, as I do, with Dr. Beard and Prof. Von Leyden and many others after him, that the war with cancer during the past half-century - which comprises practically the whole of the scientific period in medicine - has hitherto been conducted on lines all but unprofitable and irrelevant, as the lamentable failure to obtain practical results only too fully demonstrates, I have called this volume "The Conquest of Cancer" rather than, for instance, "The War with Cancer," not because I wish to maintain any such monstrously untenable thesis as that the disease has been actually conquered, but because I hold that there is abundant warrant for the belief that the new mode of attack indicated and initiated by Dr. Beard gives us the key to the enemy's position, and that so soon as this advantage be pressed home, the conquest of cancer will be an accomplished fact. The evidence and the arguments of the succeeding pages are submitted in the belief that they should suffice to direct the attention of the practical worker away from modes of attack which have hitherto proved wholly unprofitable, towards a new mode which commends itself on two distinct counts.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter xi cancer and surgery Unt1l the recent inquiries which this book discusses, it was generally recognized that, despite all other promises, there was no means of opposing the growth of cancer but the knife. The local treatment, whether by the knife or caustics, of what is at first a local disease in every case, dates back to the earliest times. At one period during the nineteenth century the view was strongly expressed, and held, that though the manifestations of malignant disease are primarily local, the malady really has its seat in the blood, and that therefore all local treatment is essentially futile. Now it may very probably be true that certain conditions of the blood are highly relevant to the growth of cancer, but no one would as yet again oppose the surgical treatment of cancer on the grounds which were formerly maintained. For many years past, and, indeed, ever since the immortal work of Lister made possible the scientific development of surgery, such advance as has been achieved in the treatment of cancer has been entirely surgical. The solitary exception, perhaps, is that of the treatment by the Rontgen rays of the most superficial and least malignant form of cancer, which is known as rodent ulcer. The surgeons and the pathologists have joined hands to ascertain, in the case of cancer occurring in various sites, the directions in which the disease commonly spreads, and the position of the lymphatic glands in which secondary growths commonly occur. These investigations have led to the devising and making of ever more and more extensive operations. Not so very long ago, for instance, the surgeon was content merely to excise visible cancer of the tongue or lip; now, in addition to doing so, he systematically removes all...
