Biology of cancer: thermodynamic answers to some questions.

Journal Article 2001; 22(6): 413-416 PubMed PMID: 11781537 Keywords: Humans, Neoplasms:diagnosis, Thermodynamics,.

: All the theories of carcinogenesis have properly described this event from methodologically different points of view (medical, biological, social, biochemical psychological etc.). The point is that one should understand the thermodynamical rules underlying each of these approaches. On this level of knowledge, quantum thermodynamics co.....
