Authors: Sergey Alexeevich Shalin, surgeon, PhD, Associate Professor. Anton Arturovich Keskinov, physician-researcher.

This book is devoted to topical issues of theoretical oncology: the mechanism of the “birth” of a malignant stem cell, the growth of the malignant focus and the development of the malignant process. Based on published data, our own observations and thinking, a universal and easily comprehensible theory has been developed where many of the accepted facts find their place. The proposed theory gives general ideas about the aetiology and pathogenesis of malignant tumours, thus creating the necessary basis for their further study and improvement.

The book is intended for students and teachers at medical and biological centres of learning, researchers as well as doctors of all specialties, who are interested in the problem of malignant diseases.
