Abstract

After stating that understanding of biology can only be achieved by an archeological point of view, the author presents a theorem by which cancer, as a permanent cell proliferation, is only a bio­logic adaptativefuncion which is the true essence of the evolution of species. He then tries to de­ monstrate this theorem, based on the biogenesis complexity and on the fact that all mutagens are cancerigenic.
